How to delete Blog Content?
-
I want to delete the content on my blog currently, but keep the name and the URL for future use. Can you help me with this? I just asked WordPress to import the content into my other blog for now, so once the import is 100% complete I would like to delete the content from here. I was told to contact support and it took me to this, is this the right place?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
If you don’t have a lot of content and don’t wish to wait for Staff to delete it for you then you can quickly remove your contents by deleting them in bulk.

bulk delete posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/#bulk-edit

That will remove all data including posts, pages, tags, categories, comments, and uploaded files and once deleted, the data cannot be recovered. If you are sure you want Staff to proceed, please reply to confirm the URL of the blog you want them to empty.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content does not remove it from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.
