What am I missing?

  Yesterday I created my domain kp-limo.com at HostGator.com then downloaded WordPress and started a website. Well, I thought I did. Today nothing! On HostGator/Hosting I see my domain. But on WordPress I enter url kp-limo.com and I only get a ‘Hello world!’ page. I enter url wordpress.com/kp-limo and get ‘Uh oh. Page not found.’
  Again, what am I missing?

  Perhaps you’re missing the fact that this is the host WordPress.com and your site isn’t hosted here. You reach your site over there at Hostgator with http://kp-limo.com/wp-login.php?

  OK I tried that and loged into WordPress and I get “Fatal error: Arrays are not allowed in class constants in /home4/kplimo08/public_html/wp-content/plugins/mojo-marketplace-wp-plugin/vendor/bluehost/endurance-wp-plugin-updater/Plugin.php on line 43”
  It can not be this hard!!!

  Here at WordPress.com things are easy and there is much support from staff. But with a site built with the wordpress software elsewhere as yours is there are a million things that can go wrong, especially with plugins. If your host doesn’t offer assistance then you’ll need to register an account and ask in the correct support forum.

  I got it. MS Edge works but it seems DUCKDUCKGO puts something extra on URL that messes things up.
