  Your WordPress.com blog will never show up as part of your website; it is hosted at WordPress.com and will always require a link off your site to get to.

  Thanks,

  My hope was to have the blog show up as a page in the website under my domain name.

  I’ve seen others like this. Otherwise google doesn’t pick up the changeing content and count it towards the website.

  Now I have a page on my website tabbed blog where there is the link. It doesn’t look to great. K

  If WordPress.com is hosting your blog, the googlejuice counts towards your blog, not your website. The way to change this is to self-host your own WordPress.com blog using other webspace and build it into your website.

  Agreed. If you want to self-host you can download a free template from http://wordpress.org and you can import the contents of your wordpress.com blog into it. If you’re not in a position to self-host then you can hire a web host.
