  Hello,
  I am trying to delete my site because we have created a new one. However, when clicking on tools in the dashboard, the delete site option does not appear. Because of this, I have been unable to delete the site. Help!

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

  Are you logged in under the correct username account? It doesn’t sound like you are to me.

  Dashboard → Settings → Reading

  Tools page link http://viterbolumen.wordpress.com/wp-admin/tools.php

  The delete site link is here https://wordpress.com/settings/delete-site/viterbolumen.wordpress.com/

  All blogs are independent websites and deleting one has no impact on any others at all.

  To delete a WordPress.COM hosted blog you must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog to navigate to Dashboard > Tools > Delete Site. The guide is here http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  https://wordpress.com/settings/delete-site/NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com

  *Replace “NAME_OF_BLOG” with the actual name of the blog in the URL above.

  If you are not logged in under the correct username account then clear your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and cookies https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-wordpress-com-cookies prior to logging into another account

  If the log-in information is lost you need to visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
