    Hello. I want to permanently get rid of my wordpress site from the internet. I don’t want it to exist anymore or people to be able to find it. How do I erase it completely? Excuse the terrible lingo.

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

    Hi prvetsma,

    If puertoricanveteransma.wordpress.com is no longer needed, it can be deleted with these steps:

    Delete a Website

    Deleting a site means that address will be permanently unavailable (even for new sites) so that’s something to consider if there is a chance it may be needed again in the future.

    It’s worth noting this process won’t remove the site from search engine results — we don’t have any control over those. Generally speaking, search engines can take up to 4-6 weeks to reflect any site changes.

    You can ask Google to remove the content (after the site has been deleted) using their Remove Outdated Content Tool:

    I hope this helps.
