  I normally post quite often, but I am concerned that some unforeseeable circumstance will keep me away from my blog for a lengthy period (real bad car accident, death, stroke, something that required lengthy rehab, etc) or forever, and I was wondering, will my blog stay in cyberspace if I stop posting for a long time? Will it be around forever? Is there a way to ensure that it doesn’t disappear? Will one of the upgrades do the trick (provided that I leave word to some trusted person to keep paying the bill)?

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

  Yes! There is no posting rwquirement. The blog is yours and you do not require an upgrade. The blog will be there when you return. Blogs are not deleted or suspended for lack of use – ever. They are only suspended or deleted for ToS violations.

  If this is the blog you mean then my answer above stands > http://juliemadblogger.wordpress.com/

  However, you have site other than a wordpress.COM blog linked to your username. If that’s what you are referring to then everything changes as it’s not a free blog being free hosted by wordpress.COM. We cannot help you with it at all and you will have to go here for support > http://wordpress.ORG/support/

  Thank you so much! Yes, that URL is the one I use, so I am glad my blog will outlive me!

  The things that might not be around are possible your email accounts if you don’t log in for some time. And also Twitter because I read how new rules say you’ll lose the account if not active for some time.
