WordPress Deletion
-
Hi there,
I have two wordpress sites, this one and the other being http://www.emmavogelmann.com. I wish to delete emmavogelmann.wordpress.com to avoid confusion however I want to check there are no connections between the two sites as I don’t want emmavogelmann.com to break.
Please advise.
Site: https://emmavogelmann.wordpress.com.
WP.com: Yes
Correct account: Yes -
There’s no connection between the two that I can see.
You can delete a site following this guide:
https://wordpress.com/support/delete-site/
However, I would recommend you set the
emmavogelmann.wordpress.comsite to be private in case you would ever want to use that URL again. Deleting the site would also permanently delete that URL and you would not be able to reuse it in the future. Setting it to be private will hide it from both visitors and search engines but retain your content just in case.https://wordpress.com/support/settings/privacy-settings/#privacy-options
Note that
emmavogelmann.wordpress.comwon’t redirect toemmavogelmann.comunless you have a site redirect upgrade. I’d recommend adding that upgrade to your site if your visitors are used to going toemmavogelmann.wordpress.com– that way both your visitors and search engines will be informed of your site URL change when they visit or crawl your site. You can read how to do this here:https://wordpress.com/support/site-redirect/
Let us know if you have any other questions.
