  Hi there! I own a website with Format but I’m not happy with the blogging capabilities of the site. I want to continue blogging on WordPress. I own a free WordPress blog at the moment but want this to happen: When the user clicks on a link on my website in Format (example: BLOG) it will lead them to ‘www.mydomain.com/blog’ – my WordPress blog. Is that possible?

  Hi there,

  You can have your WordPress.com blog within your site by connecting it to a subdomain. This will look like this:

  blog.mydomain.com

  Please note that it’s not possible to connect a WordPress.com blog to a subdirectory like you mentioned in your example.

  To set this up, you can follow these instructions:

  If you have any other questions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to help.
