  I’d like to remove my WordPress site completely. I have not used it in 6 years and am not likely to do so in the future.

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

  Hi there!

  You cannot delete a WordPress.com account for good, but you can empty it out from all your data and leave it inactive.

  You can find all the general information about deleting accounts here:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

  These links instead, will guide you through the process of deleting your site’s content:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  This action is permanent and cannot be reversed so only delete content you are sure you won’t need it again in the future.

  To remove all personal information from your account settings have a look here:

  Account Settings

  To change your password to a random string:

  Change or Reset Your Password

  Hope this helps!

  Hey captainjoebrown,

  I hope you know that it’s a permanent action and you won’t be able to use the same URL again.

  If you have made your decision then you can accomplish this from your WordPress dashboard. Please follow the steps mentioned on this page.
