  Hi there —
  I’m trying to buy a domain for my name but there is an existing one on WordPress that doesn’t look like it’s in use: https://jadawong.com/. How can I buy this from WP or the user?

  Hi there,

  The domain jadawong.com is not registered under WordPress.com and the site is not hosted on WordPress.com either.

  See the differences between WordPress.com and self-hosted WordPress here:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  If you wish to buy over the domain from the owner, you can try to contact the owner on that site or wait for it to be expired and released next year.

  Just to add on, in case you’re unable to own the domain, you could consider registering your domain on another TLD, such as jadawong.blog or jadawong.me. :)
