  I have three websites with wordpress. One of them, my newest blog, is the one I need help with. It’s hrhelpdesk. The name on the url continues to apply my username (ppgllc) instead of the site name, which I have put in several times on the General settings page as hrhelpdesk, as instructed in the support information available on line.

  I need users to find this blog by typing http://www.hrhelpdesk.wordpress.com . Can you help me?

  Thanks,
  Rosanna Nadeau

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

  hrhelpdesk.wordpress.com is no longer available.
  The authors have deleted this site.

  You cannot recover or register any deleted blog URL. Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and it must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click. Once the verification link for deletion is clicked the blog URL is forever gone, gone, gone.

  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.
