  Hi,

  I’ve visited the mentioned site, but I found no content on that blog. So you can just keep it as it is. In future you can again start posting.

  You can also make this site private son no one can visit it. Later you can make it public again, no problem.

  Please see here to learn more about privacy settings: https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  Hope it helps.

  You are welcome :)

  But remember, if you delete a WordPress.com site, you will never be able to get the URL. Deleting a site makes the URL gone forever.

  WordPress.com says,

  Deleting a site permanently removes it and you’ll never be able to re-use its WordPress.com address (such as yourgroovysite.wordpress.com).
