  I have been trying to figure out how to use wordpress (for the first time) on my website.

  I already own the domain and am having it hosted by ZipHosting. I made an account on wordpress but didn’t see any way to do it so I went looking through my hosts site. I used an installer on the hosts site to install wordpress onto my domain. It asked for a username, password and email address. I used my current wordpress account details but I’m not sure if it was linking to my account or trying to make a new one.

  After the installer finished I can now get to the wordpress login screen from my domain but after logging in it takes me to a 404 error page.

  I hope all of this made sense.
  Is there anything I’m doing wrong?

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

  Hi, you are in the wrong forum. This forum is for blogs/sites hosted in WordPress.com.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and different http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  And you should ask in the WordPress.org forum
