  As you note, the domain achieskitchen.com expired 5/27/14. You will need to renew achieskitchen.com if you would like it to work with your WordPress.com site again.

  Thanks Rootjosh, I thought I had purchased a domain with WordPress though? If not, is it possible to do so and how instead of purchasing from google?

  achieskitchen.com is just mapped to WordPress.com, not registered here.

  If not, is it possible to do so and how instead of purchasing from google?

  Short answer: Maybe…eventually.

  Long answer:

  Domain expiration is a fairly long process. Once a domain expires, it goes through a series of steps that make it increasingly difficult (and more expensive) to renew. You can read about it here:

  Recover an Expired or Cancelled Domain

  So yes, eventually you would be able to purchase it from us (assuming that nobody has bought it out from under you during the expiration process)
