  Hi all, I am very frustrated because I feel stuck with setting up my website. I don’t know much about creating a website and I experiment a bit with gateway. I want to reset all changes I made and start all over again with this theme and I want to keep my domain name too. Please help

  Thank you
  A.

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

  Make sure you are running an updated browser version forund at http://browsehappy.com or upgrade there please.

  The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:

  http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  * You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.

  If the log-in information is lost you need to visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

  Every theme has a detailed theme description page with set up instructions like this one https://wordpress.com/themes/gateway/ and a live demo site like this one https://gatewaydemo.wordpress.com/

  A blog is a website. The difference between blog and website is simply structure and semantics.

  A blog is a post based website designed for interactive communication. As the posts are frequently updated and appear on the front page of the site it’s very attractive to search engines.

  What most people call a website is merely a page based site that functions as a one-way noticeboard. As the structure is page based and as pages are for static content that rarely changes, and as pages do not have RSS feeds, and as others do not backlink to pages, it is not as attractive to search engines as a post based blog structured site is.

  Any WordPress blog can be restructured from being post based to being page based – no upgrade required. For greater clarity read > http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/
