  We’re building a blog with wordpress, but wanted to use our own domain and server.
  Could you advise what we should do?

  Thanks~

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

  Hello @salvationddata1610,
  You can map the your own sub-domain BLOG.SALVATIONDATA.COM to a wordpress.com site by following this official support guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-subdomain/

  Hope this helps 🙂

  Hi there
  You are describing a self-hosted site. You first need to find a hosting company and plan that meets your needs. You can transfer your content to your new site.

  This document:

  Will guide you through the process

  Hate to see you go though…

  Thanks guys, I am not very familiar with this whole thing. Let me be a bit more clear about what we need.
  We own the domain salvationdata.com and already bundled blog.salvationdata.com to our server(before we build a blog with wordpress). A friend told me that we need to move the whole database for our blog on wordpress to our own server. Things like this.

  Thank you so much for your help.
