  I already have a domain and didn’t know what I was doing when I set up the blog. When I click on the blog it takes me to my website though not to the blog itself. How do I rectify this situation? Can I keep my site hosted with another vendor but still use WordPress as my blog site or do I need to use only one vendor?

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

  Hi there!

  You can setup your WordPress.com site as your blog and keep the rest of your site hosted elsewhere. To do this, you’ll need to setup a CNAME with your domain registrar and set up domain mapping for your new subdomain, like blog.example.com.

  Here’s some more information about setting up a subdomain:

  Does that help? Let me know if I can clarify further!
