  Hello,

  I was paying for my wordpress site to have a paid for, .net url. That url has expired. How do I switch it back so it can be read at .wordpress.com?

  Thanks.

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

  Hi there,
  Will you please post both the URL for the domain and the URL for the .wordpress.com blog that you were mapping from to the domain?

  Sure.

  The domain of renewny.net ran out in April. I just went to the blog and switched my primary domain back to renewny.wordpress.com, but when I put that in the url bar it goes to renewny.net and say the page is not available.

  I have to run, but am posting once more due to the fact that I have clicked the “notify me of followup posts via email” option.

  Thanks again. Enjoy the day.

  http://renewny.wordpress.com/ – loads fine for me – you might have a caching issue with your PC or browser – try clearing the cache

  I’ve removed the domain renewny.net from your account, to avoid any confusion. Note that the domain name has been released by the registrar, so anyone (including you, if you’d like) can register this domain name now.
