  Hello!

  The michaelsichico.wordpress.com site has been deleted by it’s creator.

  According to the WordPress support doc titled ‘Delete Site’ found here.

  “Deleting a site permanently removes it and you’ll never be able to re-use its WordPress.com address (such as yourgroovysite.wordpress.com).”

  Unfortunately there’s no way to recover it. Sorry.

  If it’s any consolation, the domain michaelsichico.com is available, and could be used as your site address if you upgrade to any paid plan.

  I hope that helps, and let me know if you have any other questions!
