  I have a wordpress blog through wordpress.com.
  http://www.carrieheather.com/blog

  I have a website, with an already registered domain, but I want to switch my website to be website with wordpress.com

  I have checked out your “Domain Mapping” portion, but I really don’t know how to do it.
  Also, I want my current blog to be a link on the website.

  Can someone please help me?
  Thank you!

  To clarify http://carrieheather.com/blog/ is not a WordPress.com blog. It’s a WordPress.org blog. http://carrieheatherproductions.wordpress.com/ is a WordPress.com blog.

  What you want is to import the content of the first blog into the second? That’s easily done, via the Tools->Export and Tools->Import buttons on your dashboard. Any material at carrieheather.com that isn’t on the blog itself will have to be copy-pasted into static Pages at your WP.com blog.

  You will need to pay $13 a year to map your custom domain to a site on WP.com. And your blog link will change. At Wp.com you can’t have a blog URL of the sort whatever.com/blog but you can have blog.whatever.com
