  I have one specific reader that I dont want to have the possibility to read my blogposts. I normally write protected posts (password), but since so many people allready know the password I have, Im not sure if I want to change it just because of that one person.

  How can I still continue writing my blog, and let the people I want to read it, read it like normal without changing password, but block the person I dont want to read?

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

  You really can’t. Even if there was a block by IP option (which there isn’t) it is easy to get around via anonymous proxies or things like TOR.

  No, it is not possible.

  You could make the blog Private – then only admit those you want to view it – but then all your visitors will need a WordPress.COM account (blog not required)
