  WordPress will not let me register my domain. I have tried, on multiple computers, going to this link https://wordpress.com/domains/register/ and entering my desired domain (theamericanroadtripper.com) and clicking ‘search’. It then says ‘Congratulations! theamericanroadtripper.com is available’. When I click ‘Register Now’, nothing happens! I have tried this several times, between yesterday and today, in both explorer and google chrome, on multiple computers, with no luck. I once tried a completely different domain, and had the same result. Please help!

  HI there,

  I’m so sorry to hear that. I just tested this out and found that after it confirmed that the domain I wanted was available, I was taken to the Registration details for the domain. I’m assuming you aren’t able to get to that page? Can you please try clearing out your cache and cookies using the guide below?

  Then please try again and let me know if you run into the same issue.

  Hi Grace,
  I have cleared the cache and cookies on two different computers with two different browsers and still am unsuccessful in the ‘registration’ of the domain. Any other ideas?

  Hi there,

  I see that you have registered the domain:

  theamericanroadtripper.com

  Do you still need help with this?
