  Hey, I want my wordpress blog to be inside yepness.com

  It would me yepness.com/blog

  But I mapped yepness.com only.

  What can I do? Delete this one and add yepness.com/blog ?

  Thank you

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

  yepness.com is hosted by Amazon.com, not by WordPress.com
  Name Servers:
  ns08.domaincontrol.com
  ns07.domaincontrol.com

  Domain information:
  https://www.whois.com/whois/yepness.com

  Please contact your web host as that site is not on our WordPress.COM servers.

  Hi mariana100418,

  I see you purchased domain mapping for blog.yepness.com on yepnessdotcom.wordpress.com but you haven’t finished setting that up yet. Just to confirm — would you like to use blog.yepness.com as the custom domain for your blog, rather than yepnessdotcom.wordpress.com?

  Yes, I would! Do I have to do anything else?

  Great, thanks for confirming. You will need to follow these steps in order to map a subdomain to your WordPress.com blog:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-subdomain/#mapping-a-subdomain-when-the-domain-is-registered-elsewhere

  The link above contains a sample email you can send GoDaddy, which asks for a subdomain (blog.yepness.com) to be pointed at WordPress.com (yepnessdotcom.wordpress.com).

  I hope this helps.
