  I activated a blog domain.

  Then I was sent an email to activate my account.

  Now, I can not tend to my domain name, and when I type it into a browser, WordPress tells me the domain name is reserved… which I know… because I reserved it.

  Please, any help is greatly appreciated.

  What is the exact URL starting with http:// of the site you referring to please?

  This is wordpress.COM support. We cannot answer any questions posted here accurately until we have the relevant URL and have confirmed hosting. Note that about 30% of those who post here daily are posting to wrong support forum.

  We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
  (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
  (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM. That support is found at http://wordpress.ORG/support/
  (3) sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page. That support is found at http://jetpack.com/support/

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, support docs and support forums, run different theme versions of themes with the same names, and many people get confused about the two. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  The wordpress.ORG support forums are at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/

  http://vstech.wordpress.com

  I signed up only a few moments ago with this as my blog name.

  At the time, the domain was available, so I selected in. After I verified my account, I logged in and saw that I had nothing under “My Site” at the top left.

  Thank you for your help.

  I think, based on a re-read of your response, that this is the wrong support forum, however.

  I headed over to the jetpack site, however, and that did not seem to be a place that answers questions such as this.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you again.

  Hi there,

  The address, http://vstech.wordpress.com/, is reserved. That means only the person logged in as the username, vstech, can register that address. There is no way for you to use that address.

  You can try to register a different free address via this link:
