  On December 6, 2021, I have wrongly changed the address of my blog. My blog was named NYTANAYA and the address was https://nytanaya.wordpress.com. I have changed the address to https://yogasimhaputran.wordpress.com. I have lost all my readers and followers who have so far given over 429 thousand views. I see that on change of address all the existing around 1300 posts in my blog became inaccessible for the existing readers and followers. I have realized that my action was a wrong one. I read in your support forums that the blog which is closed wrongly can be recovered within 30 days. I want to revive my blog’s old address https://nytanaya.wordpress. But when I again tried to change, the site says that the name is not available. Please help. Thanks and regards,
  N Ganapathy Subramanian, India

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hello there,

  It looks like this site was deleted before the name change and so I was able to restore: https://nytanaya.wordpress.com/

  However, it looks like all posts, content and stats can be found here: https://wordpress.com/stats/day/yogasimhaputran.wordpress.com

  I hope this helps.

  Hello Mr Adam Leone,

  It is a great help you have done. I had literally lost hope that I can get back to my old address.

  Will it help my readers if I move or copy all contents in https://yogasimhaputran.wordpress.com to https://nytanaya.wordpress.com.

  Thanks a lot.

  With regards,

  N Ganapathy Subramanian,
  India.

  Hi there,

  Assuming you want https://nytanaya.wordpress.com to be your main site still, then definitely.

  In order to move your content from one WordPress.com site to another, please visit our support pages on exporting and importing your content. Let me know if you have any questions about any part of the process.

  Thanks!

  Dear Mr Darnell

  Thank you for your post.

  I have completed importing the posts from the new blog into https://nytanaya.com.

  The site appearance needs some tweaks to bring it to the looks it had earlier.

  I will update a menu today.

  I plan to use both the addresses for two blogs. As originally my blog contains posts in two languages, English and Tamil, I am thinking of having the blogs exclusive for one language each.

  Thanks and regards.
