Blog still appears after deleting site.

I am having issues with content still appearing online after I’ve deleted the site. I can no longer access the dashboard for this blog because I have deleted it. I also know that the content that is appearing is not cached content. How can I delete this content permanently?

I’m sorry but we cannot provide accurate answers to any blogger who fails to provide the exact URL starting with http:// for the exact blog they refer to so we can verify where it is hosted. Please do that now.

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. To completely remove an entire page from Google search results: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1663419?hl=en

That blog has not been deleted.
This is all going to boil down to how many username accounts you have and exactly which one registered which blog. There is only one means of account recovery so you can delete the blog so please read on.
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 and navigate to Tools → Delete Site.
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-visibilityIf you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
If required please complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.

When I login and access the dashboard, I see the following.
My Sites
You don’t have a WordPress yet. Why not get started right away?I have submitted an account recovery request, but the funny thing is that I am able to log into my wordpress account, but the blog is not listed under my sites.
-
That means the blog is registered another another username account with a different email address as I explained above.
Note: This thread will be closed now, as you will be dealing by email with Account Recovery Staff.

Thanks for your assistance. I should mention that when I logged in yesterday, I did have this blog in my dashboard. I do not have multiple wordpress accounts. I am thinking I may have removed the blog?

that account and the account you are posting with are not the same – looks to me like you have two accounts – the one you are posting with here looks like it might be an Akismet anti-spam activation account

Well then log out of this account,
clear your browser cache,
then log in under the correct username account,
and delete the blog registered under it. -
