macmanx, could you reply here because it's essential to know the answer in order to make my decision on the domain address. Thank you! :) - http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/why-my-new-blog-picture-and-short-description-is-not-showing-on-other-sites?replies=4#post-1082155

Canceled domains become the property of our registrar partner and are returned to the public market only at their discretion.

Even then, there's no guarantee that someone else won't purchase it first.

And you mean that if I cancel it now, I won't be able to claim it some time later on?
And, finally, will I get all the money back or there's a tax or something and I'm going to lose some money anyway?

Thanks again for your time, macmanx!

It won't take too long for your counters to grow again.

If we cancel the domain, it can take up to several weeks, and we can't guarantee that your domain will be available to you again once canceled.

If you want to keep using your domain but you don't want to use WordPress.com anymore, you don't have to cancel it.

Instead, you can move the domain to another site, using the Domain Administration tool under Store > Domains, at the bottom of the page.

If you do want to cancel your ownership of the hadzhiev.com domain, please reply to confirm.

The counters are provided by the social networks and work on the URL.

As you have changed your URL by adding a domain, there are effectively no shares for the new URLs.
