  Do blogs ever get deleted or expire if you stop writing in them? I’m wondering because it would be cool to know that my blog would still be there floating around cyberspace hundreds of years from now.

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

  Hi. WordPress.com blogs do not expire due to inactivity. This being said, will WordPress.com exist in 100 years? I don’t think anyone can really promise you that.

  They’ll last as long as WordPress.com itself does, but that’s anybody’s guess. Look what happened with Windows Live Spaces.

  Cool, thanks! People of the future would be lost if they couldn’t read my blog.

  It would be like a doomsday event if wordpress were to disappear. Everyone’s work would be gone. Let’s try not to think about it. Think happy thoughts.

  Well with wordpress at over 20 million blogs and growing all the time, it is not likely it will go away anytime soon.
