  My http://www.rudemoodamp.com site is parked at GoDaddy. I would have to rebuild the site if I reinstate the account; but I would rather incorporate the site into my WP blog. I know virtually nothing about this process and do not understand what my options are.

  What would be the best way to go about this?

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

  So, you own a domain name which is not currently attached to any website?

  Do you have an existing site? With blog posts and/or pages? Then you go to the Tools page of that dashboard, create an Export file, go to the tools page of this dashboard, Import that file, and check to see everything came over. Then away you go.

  To connect a custom domain name to a blog here you need to own the domain name and you need to buy the $13 a year Domain Mapping upgrade http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
