  If I don’t renew my wesbite cannygardening.com then will it appear as cannygardening.wordpress.com?

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

  The underlying domain for cannygardening.com appears to be thecannygardener.wordpress.com. That is what will appear if you don’t renew.

  Note that any external links to cannygardening.com will be broken.

  Thanks @micawbr :)

  @creativebuddha I just thought I’d note, if you’d like you can switch the primary domain to cannygardening.wordpress.com now. That way requests to cannygardening.com will be redirected to the new domain — possibly giving search engines time to update their links, though ideally you’d want to give them more than a few weeks.

  Also, you’ll get an expiration notice for a few days after the domain expires. If you’ll contact staff we can just remove the domain for you at that point. You do need to be logged into the right account to do that, though.
