  Hello !

  I went everywhere on support, and didn’t find any answer to that simple question : how do you delete a blog ?
  Thanks in advance !

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

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/ That’s why I recommend making the blog private and using it for testing and as a backup blog instead. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  Provided you are logged in under the Admin username account that registered the blog in question you can delete any blog registered under that username by using these instructions. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  After you do that if you cannot locate a verification email, look in your email client spam/junk mail filter for the email with the blog deletion verification link in it and click that link. If clicking it does not work then copy and paste the link into your upper browser bar and click.
