  Hey I was trying to change my site address from JunaBeauty.wordpress.com to JunaApparel.wordpress.com, but it says it’s reserved. But I don’t see this address exist. Please let me know what’s happening, thanks!

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

  That URL is reserved for registration only by the person with the matching username account.

  https://en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/junaapparel

  When we register a username account the matching blog is reserved for our future use. It cannot be obtained by anyone other than the person who has registered the matching username account.

  If and only if you have the matching username account then logout, clear your browser cache and cookies and log in under the correct username account, and as the blog is reserved for you and you will register it after logging in under the correct username account.
  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  However, if you changed your username then the blog URL will not be available for use under the new username account.

  it says “It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help.” Does that mean it exist? I am confused.

  Obviously. Although it is empty: no post, no pages.

  Hi, TT. :)

  You cannot register a site someone else has registered.

  re: the front page error message found on every new .wordpress.com blog

  Nothing Found
  It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help.

  There is nothing wrong with that site. By default the front page of the blog is the only page that will display all published posts on it. As soon as the blog’s owner publishes a post not a page the front page error message and searchbox that appears on every new WordPress.COM blog will be gone. http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

  I’m so tired. I sang all weekend and came home to find my hubby threw out his back (extreme biking). Now I’m doing the work of 2. :(
