 * So i have tried to decipher the instructions to download and install WordPress.
   
   I have files in my downloads on my computer, i have added web hosting to my domain…..
   I’ve watched all the videos and tried to coonect it all together with no luck……
   can someone do this remotely for me? 2 Days later and I’m about to give up! They
   said that you don’t have to be tech savvy……well i can’t even understand the instructions!!!!!

 * Alternatively, you can use wordpress.com for free.
 * Or, you can find Managed WordPress Hosting where someone else installs WordPress
   for you.

 * Hello!
 * Can you get into the cPanel for the web hosting you have installed? If you can,
   as stooni mentioned, you will probably be able to install WordPress from there.
 * Your hosting will probably have something like Fantastico, Softaculous, Mojo 
   or QuickInstall
 * Hope that helps!
