Domain Upgrade and Domain Name 'Reserved'

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am wondering if there is a certain amount of money that you pay off when you upgrade to a domain name, I am thinking about upgrading but I have worked it out and it seems that if I pick the £15 a year deal, in 3 years or so I will have paid £45. I was just wondering if there is any way that we can pay the £45 now instead of paying £15 each year? That way I am covered for the next 3 years and I don’t have to worry about paying £15. Also, I’d like my site URL to be beautifulundonephotography.wordpress.com instead of beautifullyundonephotography.wordpress.com but whenever I try to change the URL to beautifulundonephotography all I get is a message saying ‘Sorry, this site is Reserved!’ It’s beginning to really frustrate me because I had a site with that name before and I deleted it thinking I wouldn’t use it and now I am trying to start to sell my photographs and get myself known, I’d rather have my site be http://www.beautifulundonephotography.wordpress.com than the other one. No one else owns a site/blog on WordPress with that specific name and it doesn’t exist as a .com or .co.uk name. So surely it should be available to me so how do I get it back to beautifulundonephotography.wordpress.com ??
    Please Help!!

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

    Currently all upgraded are for one year and need to be renewed annually – a sore point with several of us that would like multiyear renewal options

    If you use domain mapping – the base blog name will be covered up so the base name is not very important

    beautifulundonephotography.wordpress.com is no longer available.

    The authors have deleted this site.

    Since you deleted the site it is no longer available – it might become available again in two years
