  I used to have the domain name christamaxwell.com on my wordpress site. I have not had that site active / paid for for over a year now, but when I try to go to that url, a webpage pops up that says ‘this domain is parked.’ I want to release that domain name so I that I can use it on a new site I am making, which is not through wordpress. How can I do that? Thank you!

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

  Hi there,

  I would suggest renewing the domain under your account here. Then, you can transfer the domain away from your account to your new web host by following the directions here:

  Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!
