  My website keeps saying my ***.wordpress.com blog address is not valid. I have tried adding /feed/ but the website designer still says it can’t find my blog. What can I do from within WordPress to make it find my blog? (I have linked correctly to my blog, but I want my postings to show on a separate site page I have set up.

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

  This is your site URL (blog address) https://maryanneross.wordpress.com/
  This is the RSSFeed URL for your published posts https://maryanneross.wordpress.com/feed/
  Your site has multiple RSS Feeds built-in and my recommendation is to read this support doc https://en.support.wordpress.com/feeds/

  I want my postings to show on a separate site page I have set up.

  By default the front page of your blog displays all published posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. That is for the convenience of your returning visitors, who come to read your latest post, and who are not likely to be happy with being compelled to click through the same static page with the same blah, blah, blah on it every time they visit the blog looking for the latest post.

  However, if you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for posts. To do that create two pages first http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/

  After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/

  A static page (select below)
  Front page:
  Posts page:

  As you set the About as your front page you will need to edit and change that. Editing pages https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/#edit-a-page
