  How do I close my blog temporarily?

  For instance when people view my page nothing is there but nothing on my site is deleted?

  You could go to Settings > Privacy and then select “I would like my blog to be visible only to users I choose.” If you select no users, no one can see the blog. It will kill your Google juice, of course.

  Again, I don’t recommend actually doing this…it will drop you into the black hole of No Google Rank. Once you come back online, it will take a while to get back up to the rank you had with Google. You could go through and mark all your Posts and Pages private…that would do the same thing without affecting Google Juice as much…but will still impact your SEO.
