  Hello everyone,

  I have just recently deceided to start my own blog. I am still learning my way around WordPress and my Hosting Provider (Host Gator). I have a hosting account with Host Gator and through them I have installed WordPress. I have set up my own google adsense account and have places a couple ads in my blog. Will I be able to make money off this or is the money going to go to my webhost as I downloaded and installed WordPress through them. Has anybody else done this and how has it worked for them?

  Thanks in advance!

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

  I’m sorry but that site is not a free blog from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM so we cannot help you with it. WordPress.COM blogs and wordpress.org installs operate on different code. The correct support forum to get support for that blog is where the support bot points to > http://wordpress.ORG/support
