  Hi there! My domain expired two months ago and it’s now myheartfire.wordpress.com and I just re-upgraded and want to go back to having it read as myheartfire.com. How do I make that happen?

  Hi there!

  Because this domain expired, it is still going through the lengthy expiration process. You can read more about this process here:

  Recover an Expired or Cancelled Domain

  It looks like the domain has been expired for about 75 days. And the process usually takes about 80 days total. So, try checking back in a week and attempt to register the domain again then.

  Once the domain is available again, you can register it here:

  https://wordpress.com/domains

  by selecting “Register a New Domain”.

  Let me know if you have any more questions!
