  Hey! I don’t want this site on the internet anymore but I want to save my content. Is there a way that I can have the site stay privately but not be on the internet without deleting it permanently?

  Hi there,

  You can set any WordPress.com site you own to private from My Site ->Manage ->Settings.

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  That way only you will be able to see it. The site will continue to appear in search results for a while, and people might still be able to access cached versions of your content for a few weeks, but that will eventually be removed as well.
