  Website URL : http://westcoastdentalclinic.com/

  The website was created by a previous employee and we are seeking help in deleting the entire site.

  We do not have any username/password and the employee is no longer contactable.

  Is there any way we can DELETE away the website?

  Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

  We cannot help with self-hosted sites. You need to ask at wordpress.ORG.

  Do a “whois” search such as
  http://www.verisigninc.com/en_US/whois/index.xhtml
  for westcoastdentalclinic
  and you’ll see the domain name will expire 15 May 2015

  Don’t know that you can do anything about the former employee renewing it, but chances are, unless there was lots of bitterness involved, the domain will just expire then.

  You could try contacting HOSTGATOR, but if the fee has been paid and the person is the owner, it’s unlikely you can do anything about it.
