  You must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog. Then you can quickly remove your contents by deleting them in bulk.

  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.

  This site http://www.jelisbien.com/ is not hosted by WordPress.com. There is no domain mapping upgrade for jelisbien.com. If you would like to use this domain in association with your wordpress.com blog you will first need to set up domain mapping.

  Read first please http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Note that WordPress.com does not accept domain transfers but mapping an existing domain is possible.

  Domain mapping of an existing domain URL that you already own and purchased elsewhere is not done free of charge. You will have to renew the domain name purchase where you made it and the domain mapping purchase here every year.

  Important Notes Before Upgrading http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/#important-notes-before-upgrading

  Mapping an existing domain costs $13. annually. In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com subdomain blog to map from and it does not matter what that underlying .wordpress.com URL is. It does not have to match the domain URL. If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog you log in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchase a domain name by purchasing an annually renewable domain mapping upgrade for the blog.

  See here for mapping an existing domain that you already own http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  Dashboard > Store > My Upgrades is where you do the primary blog set up knowing it can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.
