  I have an old WordPress site that I have to delete for compliance reasons. I thought that redirecting http://www.deanhayes.com to my company site would do it, but people can still find old pages by going to blog.deanhayes.com, etc. I don’t know how to find where that information is or how to delete it.

  I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble. However, deanhayes.com was a self-hosted WordPress.org site, which we really can’t help with.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation and support sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at http://codex.wordpress.org/ and http://wordpress.org/support/ Your webhost’s support team is another good resource.
