  Hi there!

  There is no way to set an expiration date for posts at WordPress.com. You would have to manually remove a post from your site, or make it a draft, so it stays in your library, but isn’t visible to the public.

  If this is a very important function for you, you may consider a self-hosted site via WordPress.org. Self-hosted WordPress sites allow for a plugin that will give your this feature.

  If you’re not sure about the difference between hosting here at WordPress.com and self-hosting via WordPress.org, here’s a handy reference:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks much!
