  I have an old blog linked to me email account ((email visible only to moderators and staff)) but this blog does not show up when I am logged in. I would like to figure out a way to delete this site:
  http://itswindyhere.wordpress.com/

  Thanks,
  Dionne

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

  Are you sure you are logged in with the username that registered that site?

  justjennifer is indicating you must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.

  Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

  If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
  follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

  If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
  and if required you can complete the form for account recovery. https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery

  After you recover the account you will be able to log in under the exact same username account that registered the blog and delete it. Deleting a site permanently removes it and you’ll never be able to reuse its WordPress.com address so you must be sure you never want to use the blog again if you delete it. To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and must be clicked to delete a blog. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

  To change blog visibility to Private go to Dashboard > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3 . See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content and deleting blogs does not remove any indexed content from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months. We cannot help with search engine issues.
