  deactivate my wordpress blog temporary for some time. People who visit my blog to see a message writing “This blog doesn’t exist any more” or something like that. And if I want to reactivate it in 2 months for example to be able to do it without my posts, comments be deleted. Is that possible?
  Blog url: http://apollon2012.wordpress.com/

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

  Just set it to Private, as you have done. Then you can reactivate it. Deleting it is permanent.

  Can I take all my posts, texts I mean, comments, tags, everything… then delete my blog and when I will feel ready, create a new one, by importing all those, in order to be able not to lose them and to publish them again without much try?

  Posts, comments, images, tags, yes. Themes, widgets, no.

  And if you delete the blog, neither you nor anyone else can ever use that URL again. Do not test this. We see frantic, doomed people every day saying “But I didn’t think you meant it!”

  You’re welcome. And don’t delete the blog before making the Export file, for obvious reasons.
