  I cancelled by premium upgrade (accidentally also cancelling my domain name). It says on domain helper (validate domain) that it is still available but when I go to register, it says it is taken. I wonder if this is because I have only JUST cancelled it and so It is still showing as taken on your system?

  The domain name I want is emilylouisestyleblog.com

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

  After doing some research I can see that it does take time until the domain name becomes available again after it’s been cancelled. However everyone has different ideas of how long this is.

  Some people say a year and others say 30 days.

  I only cancelled the domain name by mistake so is there any way this can be released so that I can purchase it again?

  Hi there!

  After looking into your account, I found that you registered the domain:

  emilylouisestyle.com

  Is this the domain you would like to stick with? Or, we can try un-canceling your previous domain as well. Let me know how you would like to proceed!

  Cheers!
