  When I started building the new website WordPress said my domain name was invalid. I would like to transfer all hosting/ domain registration to WordPress once I have the new site built. The current site is: http://www.corvettecluboftexas.org/

  I do not want to transfer any of the info from the site. I am rebuilding from scratch. I simply want to know if I can keep the url (once going through the transfer process). Why is WordPress rejecting it?

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hi @frogfrench, that’s odd — can you try it without the www. to see if that makes any difference? And if it does, can you let us know so we can fix that? A .org domain should be transferrable here so long as it’s older than 60 days.

  Also, your plan comes with direct support, which will likely be faster than our community forums help. You are welcome to reach out here:
