ICANN Accreditation and WordPress
-
Because WordPress is not an accredited ICANN domain provider, how can I be sure that the domain name I purchase will be legally attached to my name?
Thanks and happy Tuesday!

WordPress.com is a limited domain reseller for Wild West Domains LLC, who are ICANN accredited.

Okay, so meaning that it will be accredited by ICANN if I purchase through wordpress because wordpress will purchase it for me through an accredited site?

Hi there,
We are not a domain registrar ourselves, but partner with an accredited registrar for our users. You should expect no issues with your domain.
If you’d prefer, you can also register your domain elsewhere and map it to a WordPress.com site:

Thanks so much jackiedana! I actually do have a question but I posted it with my new domain account name. It was a question from culturedmilk.com ….this was the title of it: Deleting blog–>lose access to purchased domain name? Should I ask my questions again here?

Hi franceswilson,
Ah, that’s why I didn’t find it – those go to a different queue. No worries, I can access it just fine. I’ll jump over there to reply.
