  Is it possible to have my domain name and blog site reinstated (iceman18.com. I let it lapse in 2016 when I was overwhelmed with clinical depression. I, of course, wish now, that I could have summoned the energy to complete this small renewal exercise.

  Thanks,

  Hey there,

  Yes, you can absolutely reinstate iceman18.com back with your site. Thankfully, it went through the redemption period without anyone else purchasing it.

  You can follow the instructions to re-register your domain with WordPress.com here:

  Please let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!

  iceman18.com is available for registration. Head over to https://wordpress.com/domains/add/iceman18.wordpress.com and register the domain name.

  You would need a paid plan to use this domain name to your WordPress.com site.

  No worries @akumarjain!

  If I had a nickel for every time I’ve done the same thing. =)
