  Hello- I set up my domain and account via Bluehost. I am being directed to two different ‘places’ for WP…one has a left upper corner tab with My Site and Reader, and one is this:
  http://box2106.temp.domains/~twolapto/wp-admin/customize.php

  Which should I be using?

  http://box2106.temp.domains is a WordPress.ORG install hosted by Unified Layer, not by WordPress.COM

  We provide support only for sites hosted on WordPress.COM servers. You are posting to the wrong support forum. Know that WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and you can read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Contact your web host for hosting issues. For software issues post to the WordPress.ORG support forums.

  The wordpress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support.

  The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/
  If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
  See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support.

  Hi there,

  Your Bluehost site is connected to your WordPress.com account via a plugin called Jetpack. This plugin adds some features to your site, and allows you to manage your site via the WordPress.com interface. That is the My Site interface you mention above.

  You can learn more about the Jetpack plugin and the features it adds to your site here:

  Jetpack

  Then you can also manage your site via the WP-Admin pages, that is the admin interface for the WordPress software itself.

  It’s completely up to you which one you prefer to use. A benefit of the WordPress.com interface is that it’s set up for managing multiple sites, so if you have more sites, just install Jetpack on them as well and connect it to this WordPress.com account, and then you can manage all sites from a single WordPress.com login rather than having to log into WP-Admin for each site separately every time you want to make a change.
