  I purchased a .com domain name but when I try to start a wordpress.com blog with this domain it says the site already exist. I have done this with 2 other domain names and I was able to start a wordpress.com site with both of them. Confused. Did i already open one or is it possible someone else has it.

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

  Hi, please help me if you can. I did a blog fatadacia.wordpress.com name. Not to have discussions with others I changed id and name of the page in Dacia giants, but up in the bar where you appear all fatadacia.wordpress. Could you help me to change my dates not to defend this name: gigantiidindacia.wordpress

  I did find a blog of bodywholeness.wordpress.com so I guess I can have the domain bodywholeness.com and someone else can have the wordpress part of it. I am very new to all of this but it seems like you dont need to own the domain name to have the wordpress blog spot. Not sure how to have a wordpress for that domain.

  Yes, the domain name, bodywholeness.com is separate from the blog address bodywholeness.wordpress.com. In the second case, the domain is “wordpress.com,” and bodywholeness is considered a “subdomain.”

  You can create a WordPress blog with any subdomain, and point any domain that you own to it. For more information on doing that, see the following: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
