Do you have your domain name? Order a domain name – I suggest making this separate from the hosting company. Register.com is a good start.
Do you have a website host? Order hosting with a company that offers PHP version 5.2.4 or greater and MySQL version 5.0 or greater.
Do you have WordPress or Joomla! installed? I can offer to install it for free if you aren’t able to use a one-click install to install it yourself. Sometimes your hosting company will offer to help you.
Do you have a theme (template)? Choose a link from my theme resource page or do a web search. Some themes are free and some have a small fee.
