  Hi!

  If you’re using BlueHost then you’re using WordPress.org. Here is an article on the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you have any questions about themes, their forums over at WordPress.org can help, here is a link to them: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates

  Basically once you’re logged into your Dashboard you’d navigate to Appearance>Themes> and if you uploaded your theme to the correct location via FTP you’ll see it here and when you hover over your theme name you can click “activate”.

  Hope this helps!
