If you want to learn how to delete a blog on Blogger, I congratulate you. Blogging on the Blogger platform is something that I was never a fan of.
That’s because the platform doesn’t allow you to grow your blog, as opposed to WordPress. Even if Blogger is free, it still doesn’t make sense to use it.(1)
That’s because you still work to put out good content. If you think about it, building a blog on WordPress is much more profitable in the long run. You are even able to sell your WordPress blog on EmpireFlippers for tens of thousands of dollars if you grow it until a certain point.
Therefore, if you want to learn how to delete a blog on Blogger, you’re in the right place! By the end of this article, you will know exactly how to do that.
How To Delete A Blog On Blogger
Luckily, it’s very easy to delete a blog on Blogger. You will just need to follow a couple of simple steps, and you will be done in about 5 minutes.(2)
So, what are these steps? Let’s jump right into it:
The first step is obviously logging into your account on Blogger. You can do this using Google by logging into your gmail account.
After that, you choose the blog you want to delete by clicking on the arrow as shown:
The next step you need to take is to go in the “Settings” tab and click on the “Other” option.
After that, you will just need to click on “Delete blog” and that’s it. However, you might want to download your blog once the following window appears on the screen.
That’s because at some point, you might want to restore your blog. I don’t recommend you do this, but you never know, right?
As mentioned above, building a blog in WordPress is much better. And it’s also very cheap.
For example, Bluehost costs just $3 per month and you have the ability to monetize it via display ads and affiliate marketing. Also, if you build your blog up, you will be able to sell it.
Usually, a profitable blog sells anywhere from 35x to 50x the monthly revenue. Meaning that if your blog is making $1.000 per month, you will be able to sell it for up to $50.000!
That sounds very appealing, right? I’ve sold multiple blogs in the past, and I can tell you with 100% certainty that it’s definitely worth it to work hard in the beginning.
Taking a blog to $1.000 is relatively easy and you can do it in as little as 1 year.
How To Restore A Blog on Blogger
In case you want to restore your blog on Blogger, you will be happy to find out it’s really easy to do.
Just keep in mind that you will only have 90 days in order to do this. Therefore, you will need to restore it in the first 3 months after you deleted it.(3)
I really don’t see any reason why restoring your blog is a good idea, but in case you want to do it, you will first need to click on the arrow in the top left corner of the Blogger website.
After that, you should click on “Deleted blogs” and choose the blog you want to restore. The last step you need to take is to click on “Undelete”.
Conclusion
Hopefully you understood how to delete a blog on Blogger. The process is simple and pretty straightforward.
Also, I hope you understood that it’s much better to build a blog with WordPress. Blogging can be a full time job if you do it right.
The problem with Blogger is that you can’t treat your blog as a business. What you want to do is monetize your blog and think about selling it in the future.
In the long run, it can be really profitable and at some point you will be able to travel the world and spend time with your loved ones. I know because this is exactly what I’m doing.
Luckily, blogging on WordPress is very cheap. I suggest you sign up for Bluehost, as it’s very fast, reliable and it just costs $3 per month.
After that, you should be consistent and do your best to provide good content. You will slowly grow, but it’s definitely worth it.
