  I own larryseltzer.com and it is hosted on Office 365. I wish to keep the e-mail and domain administration there and use WordPress *only* for my blog. How would I do that?

  Hi there,

  With domain mapping, you can use a subdomain of your domain on a WordPress.com blog. This will allow you to keep your domain larryseltzer.com hosted on Office 365, but have a blog on a subdomain (such as blog.larryseltzer.com) hosted here at WordPress.com.

  Because you have the WordPress.com Premium upgrade, you can map a subdomain at no extra cost by using the free domain credit included in your Premium upgrade.

  For more information about mapping a subdomain, please visit our help documentation:
