  I began a website previously, but i found it difficult to navigate so I deleted it. It still shows up on google, but I cannot access it on here? I was hoping to carry on with the website.

  What is the exact URL starting with http:// of the wordpress.COM hosted site you refer to please?

  And, exactly which wordpress.COM username account registered that site?

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blogs and/or blog content or making the site private does not remove indexed content from the SERPs (search engine page results) and we cannot help with that. Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months. To completely remove an entire page from Google search results after it produces a 404 (page not found):
