  I accidentally deleted my wordpress site a few months ago and was trying to reclaim the domain name but it says I am unable to as it is already in use. However, my domain clearly says it was deleted by author (i.e me). Can I do anything to get my domain back?

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

  Hi –

  Was it a domain or a free site address? The recovery approach varies depending on which one. Could you please share the address with me here?

  The site listed in your post is active: https://mollslens18.wordpress.com/

  Hi there,

  Thanks for providing us that URL. While I hate to be the bearer of bad news, the site mollslens.wordpress.com was deleted longer than 30 days ago and has been purged from our system. When a site is deleted the URL associated with the site cannot be restored after the 30 day period.

  Hopefully, you’ll be able to find a new sitename which will meet your needs if you need help with anything else let us know.
