Hi everybody,

My blog http://www.sportbrain.it is on an exertan server (aruba.it), so I don’t get my posts in wordpress.com website and community. So how can I get it? Should I do a shadow copy of my blog on a wordpress.com accaunt?, Is there any option to include sportbrain in wordpress.com?

Thank you for any answer…

F.

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

The blog you specified at http://www.sportbrain.it does not appear to be hosted at WordPress.com.

This support forum is for WordPress.com hosted blogs only. If you have a self-hosted WordPress blog you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums, not here.

If you don’t understand the difference, you may find this information helpful.

Sorry, but the question is how to get in wordpress.com … so I think .org is not the right place to ask!

You can’t. WordPress.com blogs are part of the WordPress.com community. Other blogs are not.

And do not do a “shadow blog” here. Staff have requested if you do one, that it be set to Private. If it’s not, then it’s potentially subject to deletion for SEO gaming reasons (against the ToS here) and besides, it will completely throw your search engine rankings in the toilet. Duplicate content is a one-way ticket to nowhere on Google, trust me.

Mine was only a question about a thing I don’t know. I never had intention to do something wrong or prohibited.

I don’t care one way or the other; I’m just giving you the information.
