  Hi, I am interested in linking our blog to our website but I’m a little confused by information I was reading about how to do that. Let’s say our website is http://www.oursite.com. Is it possible to set it up so that we could make the blog http://www.oursite.com/ourblog? If not, could someone give me some advice as to the best way to set it up.

  Thanks!

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

  The blog linked to your username is not a free hosted WordPress.com blog and those are the only blogs we provide support for on this forum. If that’s the site in question then you must post to http://wordpress.org/support/
  Please read > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  For some reason my avatar links back to my website, rather than my wordpress blogs. The free wordpress blogs I am interested in linking to that website are http://thezonemag.wordpress.com/ and http://thezonemagacelebrationoflife.wordpress.com/.

  I know that I would need to upgrade and pay for the URL but I’m not sure which option to choose

  You wouldn’t be able to use http://www.oursite.com/ourblog but you could use http://ourblog.oursite.com and that’s not difficult. Just buy a subdomain following these instructions: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-subdomain/
