I want to delete 2 of my 3 blogs but I want to keep my wordpress account please.

    I want to delete the two blogs, but I want to keep my site/account.
    I’m a little confused by the mixture of terminology on WordPress. It seems to describe each blog or topic as a ‘site’, but when I select to delete a single site from the dashboard > tools of that site, it only offers to delete my entire account of (email visible only to moderators and staff). I just want to remove 2 or my 3 blogs. Please can you do this for me. Thanks very much.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Each blog is an independent website. No matter how many blogs are registered under the same WordPress.COM username account deleting one blog or doing anything at all on one blog has no impact on any other blogs ever.

    To delete a free hosted WordPress.COM blog you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered a blog to delete the blog. To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click.

    Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

    Alternatively, to change blog visibility to private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3 . See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
