  Hi I’d like to remove the categories and start a fresh blog. I want to remove all of the categories including uncategorised. and stop search engines linking to my blog with that name. I’d like having privacy there. How do I do this?

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

  Hi seduccionjiya!

  Nice color scheme on the site! It’s very soothing!

  Removing the categories and starting a fresh blog would require deleting the posts you have written. This would prevent search engines from finding you as much.

  However, if you want your blog to be private and only for your eyes OR for it not to be searchable from search engines, you can do that by going to Settings > Privacy > Click “Hidden”

  Hidden says, “Your site is visible to everyone, but we ask search engines to not index your site,” which sounds more like what you’re looking for.

  If you have any questions or concerns, let me know! If not, have a great day!
