  Hi there,

  will my new account be able to use the url of my previous site of this account when my account is deleted?

  No. If you delete an account, all sites that belong to that account will be deleted, and the addresses of those sites will not be available for re-use by anyone again.

  If you want addresses in your account to be used by a different account, instead just transfer ownership of the sites in question to the other account:
