  I recently, like within less than 48 hours, purchased the domain name KTTRADIO.org. Today I was going to buy the .com. I did a whois on the org and .com and guess what its the same redirect page. You all at WordPress.com did not happen to quickly buy the dot COM that fast did you? I hope to hear from WordPress.

  I can not image that based on what I do anyone would have any interest with a KTTRADIO domain.

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

  That is not something that we would do. I think our reputation would take a pretty serious hit if we engaged in that sort of domain extortion.

  WHOIS data shows that kttradio.com was registered last October by someone in Richmond, VA:

  http://who.is/whois/kttradio.com

  If having the .com is important to you, you might try contacting the owner that is listed in the whois and seeing if they would sell or gift the domain to you.

  Thank you for responding and your understanding. I wanted to ask before moving forward on this matter. I hope that you all did not take offense to the question being asked if you did you have my deepest apologies. I think you can understand why..I wish you all the very best and you all do have an excellent service. After the second time around using WordPress I am all smiles I have been missing out.
  God Bless
