  I have a website set up on my own domain. The website is at PrettyMuchOnline.com. I cannot work with the blog style that wix.com has though because I need to have multiple images per post. When people click on my link the blog, I want them taken to PrettyMuchOnline.com/blog/ but I need to have that blog on wordpress.
  Is this something that I can do? How do I do it?

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

  I looked around on the Wix site, and it doesn’t look like they provide a way to export your content from their platform, so you will need to recreate your site on WordPress.com.

  You can keep your PrettyMuchOnline.com domain and point it to a WordPress.com site. You simply need to purchase Domain Mapping with us, update your nameservers at your domain registrar, Bluehost.com, and then set your PrettyMuchOnline.com domain as your primary one here.

  More instructions on how to do that can be found here:

  If you have any other questions, please let me know.

  I also meant to address the point about the address PrettyMuchOnline.com/blog/. That type of address will not work here, but if you’d like, you can create a subdomain like blog.PrettyMuchOnline.com and use that instead of just PrettyMuchOnline.com as your main domain:
