  Hi there,

  hello I want to create a new website and add my existing blog (janeandmarilyn.wordpress.com) to it. can I do this?

  Yes, you have a few options here:

  1. You can modify the site you have now, to move your blog to a sub-page (like a page called “blog” and then set up a custom homepage on janeandmarilyn.wordpress.com. This way your blog will become your site, so to speak. Many folks do it this way since it does not require you to move your current blog posts. More info on how to set up a homepage here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/
  2. You also have the option to set up a new website and import your blog posts from janeandmarilyn.wordpress.com to that new site. You can start a new site at this link, and then you can use these instructions to export content from janeandmarilyn.wordpress.com and then import it into the new site.

  also my blog has links to my old website that no longer work – can i remove them?

  You can remove those here, under the Menus tab on the left:
  https://wordpress.com/customize/
