  The nameservers for herthirties.com are no longer pointed to us, and it appears that your domain registration actually expired last month.

  I recommend contacting your registrar ASAP.

  But I bought the domain through WordPress in 2012. I don’t understand. I originally bought it from midphase in april 2011, but since had it transferred. I paid 99$ to wordpress to do this a couple months ago. This should not be happening.

  You paid us for a bundle which included domain mapping, but your domain is registered elsewhere.

  Domain mapping simply points a domain registered elsewhere to your WordPress.com blog.

  You’ll need to contact your domain registrar to recover the domain.

  Last question… Can I buy a domain through WordPress… For future blogs?

  You sure can, just add your desired domain names via Store -> Domains in your blog’s Dashboard.

  If you want to use them on different blogs in the future, just let us know, and we can move them for you.
