  Hi All, I did the unthinkable and deleted my blog. I thought I had a copy of the blog posts on my local drive but I cannot locate them :( I just want to know if there is any way to retrieve the blog I have deleted?

  Hi mariaphieros,

  You can’t recover your site content once deleted. Following link gives detailed explanation on same.

  Hi Krutidugade

  I know, and I made a mistake. Reading the link you shared it never game me the option to Export Content First?

  I also never knew that now I cannot use that URL again!? Oh no… seriously is there no way to reverse this?

  If you have deleted your site despite all the warnings then I’m afraid that there is no way to reverse this :(

  Also there is no way to reuse a blog URL once it is deleted.
