Thanks anyways. *Sigh*

I really wish WordPress would install a feature like; Disable or Delete.
Something like that would be handy.

Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 - 6 months.

Igf you go to Google's cache yopur indexed content will be in cached copies and you can copy and paste it into new posts and pastes. It's tedious but it's your only hope of content recovery.

To increase traffic note that reciprocity is alive and well in the blogosphere. Social networking is strictly give to get. It takes months of posting frequently to attract viewers who will actually submit comments. The best way to get comments on your own posts is to leave meaningful comments on blogs with similar content to what's in your own blog. Set a goal of commenting on "X" number of blogs weekly and carry through.

On the bottom of your Admin page you will find a link to the Learn WordPress.com blogging Tutorial prepared by Staff. http://learn.wordpress.com/
The support documentation is all found at the Support link http://en.support.wordpress.com which is also on the bottom of your Admin page.

Whether you write informative, persuasive or controversial content learning how search engines work, and how to apply basic SEO to you content will benefit your blog as it will increase traffic from targeted readers. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/10/21/two-seo-videos-for-bloggers/

Here are 25 basic steps to take to increase traffic to your blog:

4. Make your blog posts look professional;
5. Create at least 4-6 pillar posts and continue to create pillar posts;
Pillar posts are also referred to as flagship content. Pillar posts are comprehensive posts that offer great value to readers as the contents are timeless in nature. They define you as having authority in the niche you blog in.
6. Select and link to appropriate anchor text;
7. Leave meaningful comments on related blogs and encourage comments on your own blog;
8. Develop relationships with other bloggers so you can build a blog readers’ community around your own blog;

13. Link to related authoritative blogs in your blogroll;

15. Having a well designed theme is important, evaluate your theme for effectiveness, and if required, create a new header, make improvements or replace your theme and reduce page loading time;
16. Avoid cluttering your blog with widgets that lack reader value and slow page loading time;
17. Buy your own domain and domain mapping;
18. Verify your blog with the three big search engines.

To get it from a specific board or from your general feed, take a look at http://just-ask-kim.com/pinterest-rss-feed/#.UGfcMk3A95c for the specific addresses.

While I'm sure many people are 'over' pinterest by now, I think some would still find it really handy to have a pinterest feed widget. Basically it would function like the twitter widget - showing the latest things you've pinned just as the twitter widget shows your last few tweets.

It would also be great to have the option of feeding just from certain board (for example, if you wrote a baking blog, you could choose that pins from your baking pinboard will show up on the feed, but pins from your 'cute kittens' board will not).

I'm not sure how easy this would be to implement, but it would be very useful. I believe pinterest already creates RSS feeds for each account and each board, if that helps.
