    Hello, I recently added a new domain (entreye.com) and linked it to this one. I wanted to shift to another domain provider so I deleted it.

    But even after deleting it, I see that this domain name is not available for purchase. I saw a message that this domain is currently being processed for deletion. Can someone check in so I can re-purchase the domain from another provider, please?

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

    Hey there,

    We strongly recommend against canceling a domain that you wish to move to another domain provider. Domains are not removed immediately; when they become available, anyone can register the domain. This can make recovering a deleted domain difficult, expensive, or sometimes impossible.

    You can connect your domain to another service or transfer the domain to another registrar if you wish. Sometimes, a domain may have a transfer lock if there was recent activity with the domain, but it can always be transferred after the lock has concluded.

    We cannot expedite the deletion of a domain. I see that your domain can be recovered, and I would strongly recommend restoring it to ensure it is not purchased by a third party when the deletion is complete. If restored, you can then connect your domain or transfer it to your new domain provider by following the steps outlined here:

    This guide explains how to transfer a domain registered with WordPress.com to another provider (known as a registrar), such as GoDaddy or 1&1. Before You Get Started Domain transfers can take anywhere from five to seven days to complete. If you would like your domain to start working with your new provider sooner than that, you can first change the name servers to the new host before star

    Hope this helps!
