  I am new to all this and I opened an account and used the address for the admin area which I wasn’t supposed to use. It added.word press at the end and said this would be the address for my site. I said up A site with this address and realize what I had done wrong. I would like to delete the account. But I read somewhere that if you delete an account that address could not be used again in WordPress. That is a big problem because my teacher gave me that address Other students are using it not for their site but somewhere in word press. If I delete my my account is that what’s going to happen?

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

  Hello there. Yes, your understanding is correct. Once a site is deleted, the URL (in your case is http://http4p65comwpadmin.wordpress.com) will not be able to reuse.

  Delete a Website

  If the address that your teacher gave you is not http://http4p65comwpadmin.wordpress.com, you may go ahead and delete it then create another site with the desired address.

  Hope this helps.
