well I don’t know where the communication gap is.. anyways I’ve created another blog and imported the content from my previous blog. my post’s old links will no longer work now.
I really appreciate you for your time and efforts to help me.
Thanks

@ webdesignerchristian
yes exactly this is what i want.

I have already tried what you suggested but wordpress settings is not allowing me for this to done –

for your website use the wordpress page feature
home page – appearance>customize
(or just create static page and set under settings>write i think?)

wordpress static page does not have that much features as hostgator is giving me. may be because it is free version. and I’ve already purchased hosting from hostgator for three years. I would like to use
that hosting and don’t want to waste that money.

Thanks everyone. let me explain my exact problem. although for that error 500 I contacted wp live chat and they solved it. I got my blog back.
i took hosting from hostgator. “install wordpress” is a given option in its c-panel. initially i just need a blog so i installed wordpress and start blogging with the domain i registered for website. say, https://www.example.com

now i want to start my website. when ever i will publish it the address https://www.example.com will start working for the website. what will be address of my existing blog then?

I want to add that blog to my website.

when i contacted for help at wp live chat they suggested me to create a new blog and attach it to the blog. But i don’t want to loss my blog. All the posts of my blog that are shared at different places, i want those links should remain working. is it possible?

so now u know, existing blog is at wordpress and website (not published yet) is at hostgator.
and both are having same address https://www.example.com

I’m not able to understand complicated technical terminologies as computers never been my subject.
As i was suggested in this forum i change the URLs and the error occurred. People from Live Chat told me I can’t change URLs like this. They are suggesting to use plugin “duplicate posts and pages”
I tried that too. by that way I was able to clone the posts but how to save them at other address???
its been very confusing… ??

i did the same. and it is giving error. i’m not able to do anything now. I’m not able to reach my admin page.
