New to all this, can some one help me understand how to set up website?
-
Hi, I am hoping someone can chime in here and help me to get started with my new website. I am looking for the easiest, most straightforward author website theme that will allow me to sell my books, link to amazon, write short blurbs about them, and hopefully short videos to help promote them. I am clueless as to how to do this. I already purchased my domain name, Barbarajmarting.com, and have chosen and purchased Bluehost.
Can anyone recommend an easy template to start with? I have looked at so many and am even more confused as to how to do this,
thanks so much
Barbara

Hi there,
Apologies, but we can’t help with your issue directly because we don’t host Barbarajmarting.com on our WordPress.com managed hosting.
To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, built in themes, as well as in-house support for your site questions.
Because of the way we’ve optimized our service, we also use a customized version of WordPress that is different (under the hood) from what you use at Bluehost. That limits our ability to help directly, but you may be interested in our free site building courses, which have content that applies to .com but relates pretty closely to .org sites here: https://wordpress.com/learn/courses/
You can also find help here at the open-source WordPress.org forums. These are the forums for the version of the WordPress platform that Bluehost uses: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
The folks in that forum are more familiar with these kinds of issues and are in the best position to help. Thanks!
