  hello,
  i had an account with a blog called http://exiders.wordpress.com
  but i wanted that name for this account, so i deleted the old blog and created a new with this account, but now the name doesn’t work because “‘it’s already in use”.. but it isnt, since i deleted the other! i also searched it but the blog doesn’t exist anymore…
  what i should do now?

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

  If you go to http://exiders.wordpress.com/ you’ll see that it says that the authors (you) deleted this site. That means that you won’t be able to get it back, because that was a permanent deletion, as URLs are not recycled on wordpress, so once you’ve deleted it, it’s gone, nobody, including you, can get it back.

  You’ll have to stick with your current URL, which is pretty similar, or you can pay $18 a year and buy the domain exiders.com as your custom domain.
