  Years ago, a member of our organization started blog boyscoutstroop100.wordpress.com. That person has left and we cannot contact them. The inactive blog boyscoutstroop100.wordpress.com is very similar to our current boisetroop100.wordpress.com and it confuses people who search for us. I would like to know if there is any method to have boyscoutstroop100.wordpress.com shutdown or made private.

  Thank you

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

  very tough to get a blog that does not violate the terms or service that you don’t own shut down or set to private – the old blog is owned by the person that set it up (email address actually)

  Have you tried leaving a comment on the blog?

  Also your blog has some serious loading problems – way too slow – think about the More Tag to speed up loading – you now make visitors load seems like hundreds of photos

  More Tag

  Also make sure you are optimizing the pictures for web use

  Yes – loads way way better – the front page is easy to navigate – your visitors will love you – also your site will search better with search engines – the site you want shut down has no content – so you should out search it as soon as search engines see the way better load time

  you be welcome & good luck
