  I am receiving an automatic email from “”WordPress” <(email visible only to moderators and staff)>” every 2 minutes of everyday. I have deleted my wordpress website today because of this.

  Please let me know how to stop these emails from coming??

  Can you tell me what is in these emails? Are they notifications of new followers, blog posts, likes, comments?

  Thank you so much for that information. It looks like you’re getting spam comments on your site, which are then pending your approval.

  It looks like your site still exists since it is not hosted by WordPress.com:

  http://www.josephconnorphotography.com/

  I would suggest you log into your site here:

  http://www.josephconnorphotography.com/wp-admin/

  And navigate to your Comments section in your dashboard where you can then mark all of these comments as spam.

  If you do not want readers to be able to leave comments for you, you can disable them through your dashboard at Settings > Discussion. And make sure that comments are closed on your existing pages by finding the Discussion module in the editor.

  Let me know if you have more questions!
