Routing a subdomain to a folder on another server via AWS route53

1. Only way is to put an Apache or nginx in front of both the site that is hosting your ASP.NET 4.5 app and your WordPress site.

   Then you can setup a reverse proxy on that server that makes that /blog path point to your WordPress site and the / path point to your ASP.NET 4.5 app.

   For nginx you would have something like this:

   server {
       listen       80;
       server_name  www.yourdomain.com;
   
       access_log  /var/log/nginx/log/www.yourdomain.access.log  main;
       error_log  /var/log/nginx/log/www.yourdomain.error.log;
   
       location /blog {
         proxy_pass  http://yourblogserver;
         proxy_next_upstream error timeout invalid_header http_500 http_502 http_503 http_504;
         proxy_redirect off;
         proxy_buffering off;
         proxy_set_header        Host            $host;
         proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP       $remote_addr;
         proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      }
   
       location / {
         proxy_pass  http://youraspnet40server;
         proxy_next_upstream error timeout invalid_header http_500 http_502 http_503 http_504;
         proxy_redirect off;
         proxy_buffering off;
         proxy_set_header        Host            $host;
         proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP       $remote_addr;
         proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      }
   }
   

   Keep in mind that your /blog path has to be first in the priority otherwise all the requests will get sent to just /
