  I want to make my blog with my old domain name *****.wordpress.com which I had deleted as it was not in use (my mistake). I need this domain name but I am unable to get it as it is showing that ‘Sorry, that site has already been used!’.
  How can I recover my this domain name?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Deleted wordpress.COM blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and the only exceptions are made are for URLs that were deleted 2 or more years ago. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  You can register another .wordpress.com blog
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Then if you wish to you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade because it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is when you are domain mapping.

  Thanks!

  Hi explicitely –

  I’m just confirming that you will need to choose a new site addresses to continue.
