    The blog i want to delete is REPORTINGFOOTYLIFE.

    I want to keep my IAMFOOTBALLEYE one.

    this is because when i google my active blog (iamfootballeye), only reportingfootylife comes up. This is an old blog that i don’t use any more.

    please can you help me with this?

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi there,

    Go to My Sites ->Switch Site, and select the site you want to delete. Then go to Settings ->General. You’ll find the option at the bottom there.

    https://wordpress.com/en/support/delete-site/

    Note that you can also just set the site to private, which will prevent anyone, including search engines, from accessing it, without completely removing and destroying the content. You can do that from the General Settings screen as well:

    https://wordpress.com/en/support/settings/privacy-settings/

    Either way, note that it will still take several weeks for the old site to disappear from search engines. If you delete it or make it private with us, search engines will no longer be able to see and index it, but any content that’s already indexed will continue appearing in online searches until Google decides to remove it on their end as well.

    Let me know if you have any questions about this.
