  Hi!

  I used to have a blog (biapoiani.wordpress.com) but I deleted it, in order to become a new one. I thought that it would be available but I’m trying and it’s not working. The blog is not on air, so it means that nobody took it. Besides, that’s my name, so I believe it wouldn’t be unavailable that easy.

  Could you help me to get it back?

  Thank you!

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

  https://biapoiani.wordpress.com is no longer available.
  The authors have deleted this site.

  Oh no! You ignored all the warnings. You cannot register any deleted blog URL. Deleting any .wordpress.com blog URL is not easily done and what you ask to do is not possible. One has to ignore at least three warnings stating that deletion is permanent and irreversible and then click a verification link in an email to delete a blog. That’s because 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/

  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.

  Hi again,
  No you can’t get it back. You will have to register a new one.
