  Can someone tell me how I can integrate the blog into my website, so it looks like it is part of the site and not from a separate URL?

  Thanks

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

  If the blog is hosted here, you can domain map the blog to a subdomain of your website such as blog.mysite.com .

  The other way would be to install the software from wordpress.ORG on your web host for you website and then export all your content from here and import it into the new blog.

  WordPress is also offering a service now to set up and transfer all your stuff for you, but I believe they only offer this for certain “vetted” websites.

  The last, and least desirable option is to use an iframe on a page in your site to display your blog. Sometimes this can interfere with some things here at wordpress.COM, and I typically do not recommend it.

  Thanks for your reply, but maybe you can help me out a little more, as my knowledge is limited.

  I know how to create a subdomain on my hosting server, but I don’t know how to ‘domain map’ the blog.

  My blog is on WordPress.com, so I don’t know if any of the other info applies (since it is referring to WordPress.org), or does it?

  Thank you!

  Thanks. I created the subdomain and have contacted my hosting service for the CNAME.
