You should be able to run WordPress on the same server as Share Point. Share Point is IIS, and WordPress runs quite well on that. I develop in IIS, and live sites tend to be LAMP. This way I know the site is agnostic about the platform it's on. I've been doing this for years and have run into few issues. There's a few minor gotcha's but no real show stoppers.

For more on setting up WordPress in IIS, see: https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_on_Microsoft_IIS

If by integrate you mean run on the same (SharePoint) server, there are a few options. Sorry if this is obvious, but SharePoint runs on Windows Server/IIS, while WordPress traditionally runs on Apache. So, you might be able to use something like WAMP or install directly into IIS using Web PI, but it will likely get messy.

I would either use SharePoint's built-in blogging functionality, or host the WordPress site elsewhere and try to integrate posts using an approach like this.
