  Hi there,

  According to Whois, your domain expired on the 11th of September 2019 and hence your content is being served from a free subdomain https://techyindiani.wordpress.com. It looks like it could still be under grace – making it possible for you to renew it without additional charges. As you know, once it enters redemption, it will be more difficult and more expensive to renew.
  Whois also shows that some kind of update happened on the 15th?, I’ve tagged staff to investigate and advise you further.

  Thanks

  Hi –

  Please go to https://wordpress.com/domains/manage/techyindiani.wordpress.com

  Click on the black button notice that says the domain expired 10 days ago. It will take you to a payment screen where you can pay for the domain registration renewal.

  Write back if you run in to any problems with that process.

  Then you can leave it to expire and take no action. The site is going to display on the free subdomain as you reported in the initial post.

  But the problem with my subdomain is that whenever someone tries to visit https://techyindiani.wordpress.com he gets automatically redirected to https://techyindian.in which is unavailable.

  Hi there,

  I just visited https://techyindiani.wordpress.com and was not redirected. It may have taken some time for the site to no longer redirect. Try visiting the site again and see if you are redirected.

  Thanks,
