  Hi there,

  Please note that if you delete: waynebryandotnet.wordpress.com, your domain: WayneBryan.net will not work.

  A domain name is a name used to identify a particular website on the internet. Your site’s domain name is like your mailing address. Your domain exists independently of your site, so even if you cancel your domain, all the content on your site remains unchanged. Therefore, if anything were to happen to your domain (for e.g. you forget to renew it), you can still find all your content at waynebryandotnet.wordpress.com as long as the primary domain is updated.

  You can find more information about domains here.

  However, if you want to delete waynebryandotnet1.wordpress.com, you may by following these instructions:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-site/

  Please read the warnings and advice before deleting a site, as we can’t revert a site deletion for any reason.

  If you want to hide your site instead, you can use the following guide to make your site private so only you and other members of the site can view it when logged in:

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!
