  Hello @mountproctor –

  Un-publishing a website and deleting it are two different features.

  When you un-publish a website it means the website still exist but but the contents won’t be displayed to the public. Please see the help documentation: http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  On the other hand, If you delete your website you will not be able to get it back and no one else will be able to use that website address. Read about details on how to delete your website: https://wordpress.com/support/delete-site/

  Best,
