How to delete a WordPress.com website
If you are like me and you have a new hosting service for your blogs you may know that after moving from WordPress.com to WordPress.org you may want to delete that old website. Here is how to do it.
-
Open your web browser and navigate to the blog you want to delete, in my case https://kryptosit.wordpress.com
-
Click on “My Sites” at the top left corner of your website.
