  This blog is an extension of my existing website. Is there a way to combine them or do I have to register another separate domain name for this blog? My existing website I would like this blog to be part of is http://www.myprettyfaceplace.com.

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

  Hi Samantha,

  What I would likely do in this case would be to create a sub domain from your already registered domain myprettyfaceplace.com.
  You could setup something like blog.myprettyfaceplace.com and point that to your WordPress.com blog you setup.

  You would have to create the sub domain with the company you registered your domain with, and then point it to WordPress.com. Once that’s done you would purchase Domain Mapping upgrade and then you should be good to go.

  You can find the full instructions here.

  Hope that helps, but if not let me know.
