Rookie in the blogging world
-
Hello. I need a little guidance. I bought a domain (godaddy) and hosting package (siteground) but I dont know what to do next. I am looking for a wordpress theme that has adsense and seo capabilities. I eventually want to include affiliate links. I want to be able to make some money while I blog. There are so many themes available, I just dont know which to choose. After I purchase a theme I don’t know what to do next. How do I upload the theme on my server? I’m not exactly a computer whiz to be honest. Any help would be great. Thanks, Laura

Welcome to the blogging world!
A little bit about WordPress. It’s a great platform with helpful forum communities and good documentation. The first step is to get you into the right support community for your version of WordPress. . The forums and documentation here at WordPress com support sites hosted HERE at wordpress.COM. You use a different version of WordPress hosted at Siteground.
Your version has a whole support world over at WordPress.org with documentation and forums on their website.
WordPress.org Forums:
https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
WordPress.org documentation:
https://wordpress.org/support/You will need to sign up to post in the forums over at WordPress.org because they are a completely different entity.
For more on the differences between WordPress.com and wordpress.org see
Your other support area will be your host.
https://www.siteground.com/supportYou will find great resources at WordPress.org.
Good luck with your site.
