  Following down through the step by step on the how to, when I get to the part that says to select the “Email” tab to get the code, there is no email tab shown, just a “Website” tab. What do I do? Thanks, Loren

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

  You have a WordPress.COM blog, not a WordPress.ORG blog, so those instructions don’t apply to you. As far as I’m aware, there’s no way to use the Buy It Now button at WordPress.com.

  Looking at your blog, you will want to get paid hosting and go with software from WordPress.org instead of hosting your blog here. Ecommerce and retailing products you yourself do not make is not allowed here.

  You manufacture them yourself? Ah, my mistake. That should be fine, but you still wont’ be able to do classical ecommerce here. The only payment method we can embed is the Donate button from Paypal.

  Ok. Someone mentioned something about that before but said they didn’t know how it all worked.
  So the charges I’m getting from GoDaddy are only for the domain then?

  Sorry I’m so uninformed on this.

  You’ll want to make sure: they may actually be hosting a blog for you as well.
