  I want to get my domain through you. I use to have it with bludomain and just canceled it so i can buy it with you. However, it says the domain is taken. Do I have to wait a certain amount of time before my domain is available for me to buy again?

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

  Hi there!

  Unfortunately, it doesn’t quite work that way. If you cancelled the domain and it has expired then you no longer own it. So it may have been bought by someone else and may never make it back again to the open market for you to re-buy. :( You can use this website to see if it has been bought or who currently owns it if anyone:

  To buy a domain name through WordPress follow these directions:

  Register a New Domain

  Hope this helps!

  Kind regards,
  Jason

  okay thanks for the help. So I guess Bludomain said I can do a transfer to WordPress. Do you know what that means?

  WordPress.COM is not set up for incoming domain name registrations – but you can change the name servers to point to here
