  When you sign up with your domain, wordpress gives you a “home” and “about” tab. How can I add something like “google” next to it? I try to go into pages to link to another website, but it doesn’t let me.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi fieldsy1024,

  You could use a custom menu, have a look here please: http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

  I created a menu, but how am I able to see that on my home page (www.greatweigh.com)?

  Custom menu isn’t appearing!
  Go to the custom menu page in the dashboard Appearance > Menus and in the “Theme Location” module on the upper left select your custom menu from the pulldown and then click “save”.

  Note that we no longer have to use the work around you linked to above as we can add Custom Links to custom menus. In your case that link would be http://greatweigh.com
  Note there is no “www”.
