How do I create a website with my blog?
See > Using WordPress.com to Create a Website http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/
A WordPress blog can either be structured as a page based website or its conventional post based structure can be retained. That’s why understanding the differences between posts and pages, http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ comprehending the SEO implications of creating a page based structure, and knowing how to use custom menus http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
are key to decision making when selecting a theme, and setting up your WordPress.com blog. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/05/12/better-blogging-at-wordpress-com-pages-and-posts/One one hand, none of the characteristic “blog” features likes categories, tags, authors, dates, etc. can be removed from a free hosted WordPress.com blog without purchasing an annually renewable custom design upgrade and doing the required CSS editing.

Thank You timethief,
It’s all coming together now. You’ve all been awfully helpful.
I have a wix account myself and this looks very similar to it. Ultimately it was the template that I needed the most to champion the works of my client the best way possible. But, I have plenty other clients ready for me to set them up a blog.
I hope to eventually get the best out of your product. You really need to have a ‘WordPress for Dumber Dummies’. -
timethief, there is something else you might be able to help me with.
I’ve purchased through you ‘janeharveyberrick.com’ with the $99 package. I’m thinking now I need this address for my elegant theme. How can I do this? -
You can cancel the bundle but retain the domain name. Then you can update the name servers to point to the WordPress.org install.
For canceling a bundle > http://en.support.wordpress.com/bundles/#canceling-a-bundle
