    How can I take my WordPress blog and add it to the blog section on my WordPress website?

    Hi there,

    Do you mean you want to incorporate your WordPress.com blog at https://annetherealist.wordpress.com/ into an existing WordPress site somewhere else? What is the website’s URL?

    There’s a few ways you can do this:

    1) Simplest is to just post your blog posts on the website directly. No matter if you’re using WordPress for a blog or a regular website, blogging functionality is built into the software itself. So you just need to assign a page on your site as the posts page, and start publishing your posts there instead of on WordPress.com. If you have any existing followers here on WordPress.com, you can move them over to your other site by using the Jetpack plugin.

    2) You can embed your WordPress.com blog feed into your existing site. You’d need a plugin for this, and the best place to ask about that is over in the WordPress.org forums: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    3) Map your WordPress.com blog to a subdomain on your website. In other words, if your website is at example.com, you map your blog to blog.example.com, and add a link to it in the website’s menu. It will remain two separate sites, but they’ll be sharing the domain. This option will require that your WordPress.com site is on a paid plan.

    Let me know if you have any questions about this.
