  Thanks for getting in touch with us! :)

  In order to make your blog private, please follow the below mentioned steps:

  1. Go to My Site
  2. Click Settings to access General settings

  Please note that if you want specific people to be able to view your site, you’ll need to invite them to be a viewer.
