  By accident I have created a domain and I think a sub-domain. Posts appear in both.

  There is much learning for me to do as I am brand new, and was way too eager to post! Help me get rid of what I do not want to have on my web.

  Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Could you share a link to each of the two places your posts are showing up? That will help me help you figure out what is going on. Thanks!

  As you can see, there are typos. And I do not need two blogs about the same subject.

  The one I want to keep is: wifeoftransgenderwoman.wordpress.com.

  My web address is romayka.com.

  But I am not sure if that is the “parent” and the other ones are “children” or how it works?

  Thanks.

  I think I understand now, but I want to make sure.

  When you go to this page: https://wordpress.com/sites do you see the following three “sites” listed?

  http://wifeoftransgenderwoman.wordpress.com/
  http://oifeofmtftransgenderspeaks.wordpress.com/
  http://romayka.wordpress.com/

  If so, I believe what you are asking is how to delete the middle site.

  To do that, follow the steps in this article: http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Note: you must follow these steps from the dashboard of the blog you want to delete ( http://oifeofmtftransgenderspeaks.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) and the process is irreversible. so make extra sure you are on the dashboard for the site you want to be deleted, not the dashboard of the site you want to keep.

  As for the parent/children ideas, that’s not in play. You have a username/account from which you can access all of your sites/blogs but they do not exist in any hierarchy with each other.

  Thank you so much! You are a whiz!

  Under another subject, would you know how to increase traffic to my website and how to create tags?

  Thanks!

  TimeThief, one of the forum’s most active volunteers has great advice on the increase traffic front. Here’s a link to a recent forum thread where she shared some of it: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/how-can-i-increase-traffic-to-my-blog-without-facebook?replies=6

  And here’s a quick overview on tags: http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/tags/
