  Hello, my domain expired after I closed down my old blogs. I would like to start up from scratch using the same domain which is http://www.irenehalpinlong.com

  Please can you tell me how to do this as I cannot select the option with this domain name. The message says to contact support.

  Thank you

  Howdy –

  It looks like the domain has been cancelled and you should be able to register it as brand new. This means that you’ll need to register it again as your own.

  Go here: https://wordpress.com/start/domains

  Add irenehalpinlong.com in to the big white search bar at the top and hit the enter or return key. You should see the option to register irenehalpinlong.com again.

  Write back if you have any trouble with that process.
