  Is it possible to register a deleted wordpress blog address? More specific, I’d like to use lerendoen.wordpress.com, but it says it isn’t available. When I type in the URL is says the blog is deleted… Is there a way for me to use, to take over that address?

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

  Sorry, but that is not possible. Once a blog has been deleted, that URL can never be used again, even by the person who started the blog in the first place.

  You could use the custom domain upgrade to have a site with the URL “www.lerendoen.com” for example.
