  Three days ago I signed up for premium and registered the domain http://www.nerdofpassion.com. However as I wasn’t sure whether or not to use wordpress premium, I cancelled it to try out other webhost but to my horror I realised the domain is taken.

  I was reading around the forum and found that the domain is currently held by Wild West Domains, and there is a risk of waiting a long time, never getting it back or being squatted away.

  I’d like to buy back the domain that I cancelled, so I can transfer it to another webhost when I’ve found one. Please let me know if that can be done.

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

  flagged for the staff to help – sometimes they can retrieve the custom domain name for you – depends on the time frame

  @wyzard135:

  At this time, that domain name isn’t registered. I recommend you register it, perhaps through your new host, asap.
