   Hello,

   I deleted my blog and now I want to start a new one with the same adress. WordPress informs me that the adress already exists.
   Blog url: http://horizonsmediatiquescyrilfourneris.wordpress.com

   I'm sorry, but deleted blogs cannot be restored or reused. Deleting a blog is permanent and the name cannot be used again. There are several warnings about this on the Tools -> Delete Site page and in the help pages, and you are required to confirm the deletion by email.

   You can start a new blog by logging in to WordPress.com and then going to http://en.wordpress.com/signup/

   With any blog, you can also use your custom domain with Domain Mapping upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/

   Thanks for your reply, is there another way I can manage to start a new blog with the same name? It is a professional obligation to have my entire name on the adress...

   You can register any available address here:
   http://wordpress.com/signup/

   You might also consider registering a custom domain (like example.com) with your name in it:
