  I deleted my account more than 30 days ago, but if someone Google’s my username my website comes up, which displays information that I no longer want to be readily available through a search engine. Now that my account is deleted, I can’t log in to change any details e.g. site URL, name of site.

  Hi –

  We don’t have any control over when Google will drop something from it’s indexed results. It can definitely take several weeks. You could contact them directly and ask for it to be removed. What is the URL in question? Let me double check that it’s indeed deleted properly on our end as well.

  Thank you for your reply. URL is: https://symonegarvey.wordpress.com/

  Once you’ve confirmed whether it’s deleted properly I’ll chase Google for it as well.

  The site is indeed fully deleted. At this point, it’s up to Google.
