reinstall wordpress
-
Hi,
I’m having problem with reinstall wordpress on my existing wordpress domain. I have previously deleted the wordpress site on marcvantveer.wordpress.com but still use this for my local hosted sites. Now I would like to reinstall wordpress on this marcvantveer.wordpress.com domain but don’t know how.
Can you help me with this?
Thanks,

Hi @marcvantveer ,
Once you delete a .wordpress.com domain you (nor anyone else) are not able to use it again, ever. That is why WordPress.com has put multiple warnings for you when working through the deletion process.
“If you delete a blog you will not be able to get it back and no one else will be able to use that blog address. You must be sure you never want to use the blog again if you delete it.” https://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
You do not install WordPress to build a site here at WordPress.com. All .wordpress.com domains are hosted and built here at WordPress.com. Installation of WordPress is what you need to complete in order to build a self-hosted WordPress.org site. The two are entirely different: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you want to continue to use WordPress.com, go here to register a new a domain: http://wordpress.com/start/domains/
If you are interested in installing WordPress and using WordPress.org, go here for more information: http://wordpress.org/

Thanks for the reply. I’m not trying to get the old WordPress site but like to reuse the domain. Is this possible?
