  Hello,

  I am looking to start a new blog, however the name that I would like to use belongs to someone else. It seems as though they simply registered the site back in 2011, but have done nothing with it. Is there any way that the name can be released or a way that I can contact or you contact the owner and see if they would transfer it to me?

  I am interested in using thecomm.wordpress.com.

  Please let me know.

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

  Hi @treysneeringer – You can try to contact the owner of thecomm.wordpress.com and ask for them to transfer ownership to you by following these steps: https://en.support.wordpress.com/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

  That is the only way for you to obtain ownership of that specific domain.
