    I don't think they're ever deleted for inactivity.

    I have a blog on Blogger that I started about 3 or 4 years ago, haven't updated in at least 2 years and it's still online. I don't think it's ever deleted, unless Google finds something against their TOS in your posts.

    okay. But what about wordpress, since I don't see anyone saying when do they expire or deleted? So please anyone have any data/info on them, let us know!

    it can not be deleted automatically after not being used for years. If you want to delete it, do it by yourself

    Actually, you can never delete your blog. Once you create a name for your blog, it stays permanently on your account unless you transfer ownership.

    For instance, if someone registered an awesome blogger name like seo.blogspot.com, and then they delete their blog and never log back into Google again, no one can ever have that blogger name again. The name stays in your Google account and you have the ability to un-delete your blog, so the name never expires for anyone else to use, even after deletion.

    I do not think Wordpress does any deleting either.
