G'day

I have web page www.mypage.com which is written on ASP.NET, domain name bought from godaddy and hosted at Microsoft Azure.

I want to create blog hosted at Azure, using wordpress, which opens as blog.mypage.com or mypage.com/blog.

Should I configure that at azure? or mypage project? or godaddy?

Thanks

Setup a CNAME of blog.mypage.com on godaddy (or whoever your DNS hosting is provided by) to point to the Azure (websites, I presume?) address.

  • hm, I own only mypage.com, to create subdomain godaddy asks to buy hosting which I don't actually need. http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/4652/managing-your-hosting-account-subdomains – nelly2k Jul 02 '14 at 02:40
  • You don't want a hosting plan site, just the DNS part. I don't use godaddy, but this might help (see the Adding or Editing CNAME Records section): http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/680/managing-dns-for-your-domain-names (the alias would be "blog" and it would point to the azure website address) – Brendan Green Jul 02 '14 at 02:47

Alternatively you can have your blog as a Virtual Application and you would not need to pay for extra site if you have blog sitting in www.mysite.com/blog.

See this answer on how to configure virtual application:
