  I bought a domain today through Google Apps, and had setup my WordPress site separately. I am trying to figure out how I can have my new domain name routed to my WordPress site, my email to still work through gmail, and my other Google Apps services still work. I have read all of the forums and most are about using Google Apps for email for a domain you have purchased through WordPress. Please help.

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

  Good question. Sorry, my domains are kendallinsuranceservices.com and kendallinsuranceservices.wordpress.com

  Your domain name is pointing to a Google Site.
  We can only help you with Google Apps if your domain is mapped to a WordPress.com blog.

  Thank you for trying to help me. From other posts I have read, if I point the domain to WordPress, then Google Apps will no longer work. I guess I just need to try it and see what happens.

  Not if you point the domain to WordPress.com AND follow the instructions here. :-)
