  i registered my own domain (ABC.com) thinking not knowing it will create another wordpress domain (ABCdotcom.wordpress)

  I tried to map/link own domain to another wordpress blog (ABC.wordpress) I maintain but it can’t work.
  I tried to change address, it said blogaddress was taken (of course it was. by me!)

  So in order to “free” up the address, I had to delete the original wordpress domain (ABC.wordpress) I owned.

  Now I still can’t link my domain to my wanted wordpress domain. HELP!

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

  Hi. If you deleted “__.wordpress.com”, there’s no turning back. Deleting a blog does not free up the address. This was clearly indicated on the messages asking you to confirm the deletion.

  But that doesn’t matter really, because your address is “__.com” after all. You should be able to map your domain name to whatever WordPress.com blog you have.
