  Please see any of the other dozen or so threads that have already been started on expired domain for further information.

  Since you will need Staff assistance, I ‘ve tagged it for their attention. Please be patient while they get back to you.

  godisadancer.com is still good through November 18.

  Were you referring to a different domain?

  Hi macmanx,

  Thanks for getting back to me.
  I registered the domain thegeishahouse.com, which then expired (the current domain for this site is shanothaine.wordpress.com). I would like to renew the domain, but it isn’t showing as an option in the “Domains”tab.

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Thanks!

  thegeishahouse.com – looks like it has reverted back to the wild – try registering the domain name like you did the first time – you can’t renew it – register it again –

  sometimes however WordPress.COM will hold onto old domain info so I will flag this again for the staff to look at your old records and clear the old info if required

  The domain is not in our system, so you should be able to re-register it without issue.
