  The content on this blog (ciaracusseaux.wordpress.com) is no longer relevant but I do not want to lose the blog.ciaracusseaux.com content. How can I change/remove the content from blog.ciaracusseaux.com only or hide the site (it is coming up in google searches.) I would prefer not to delete the blog. It is my understanding that by doing so, I will lose access to the address for the future.

  Thank You

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

  The best thing is to make the blog private (Dashboard->Settings->Reading then click “I would like my site to be private, visible only to users I choose” followed by “Save Changes”. This way nobody except you can view it, it will not be indexed by search engines, and you can reactivate it at any time.

  Set it to Private so it can’t be viewed.
