What is the meaning of "domain is reserved"?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Why this domain hazwanhamdan.wordpress.com is reserved? Now I had mistakenly put this domain hazwanahamdan.wordpress.com at the first registration. So, I want to change it to hazwanhamdan. But, cannot.

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

  • It means that someone else signed up with username “hazwanhamdan” but never created a site with that subdomainname.

    So, if I create a new user with name “johnsmith”, then the domain johnsmith.wordpress.com would be reserved and unavailable to anyone except me. I don’t have to set up or use that domain right away though — I could just create a site with a completely different name. Still, until I ever decide to set up and use johnsmith.wordpress.com, no one else can use it.
