While you are waiting, it is wise to download SmartFTP (go to www.smartftp.com) a free file transfer protocol application that will be of immense help in the future!

Why?  Because you have web space that you can upload photos, documents and anything else you may need as part of my fantastic hosting package!

Congratulations, you have just purchased your blog! If you have not already done so, you need to do the following:

1. Email me your WordPress Theme Choices
   • Go to www.themes.wordpress.net and be sure to check off “Widget Ready” and also “3 Columns” and then choose the “ALL” on the search criteria and then go!  You can also go to www.wpthemesfree.com or just ‘Google’ free wordpress themes widget ready.
   • If you find a theme you like, click “download” and save a few to your desktop (they are zipped files). Email them to me for upload. Specify your favorite(s). Not all themes will work well, so email me several.
   • NOTE: look for themes that fill the entire page and also if you wish to have a lot of links and sidebars, the 3 column themes work best.
2. If you have not purchased your domain from me, you must move your DNS servers to ns1.websbyamy.com & ns2.websbyamy.com. I cannot begin to work on your blog until your domain resolves to my servers. Call me for help with that if you are not sure how to do it.
3. Specify the email address that you wish to have for your domain (if you purchased your domain from me), for example: susy@susystamper.com. Let me know if this is an email transfer (it is an existing email address that will be transferring).

NOTES:
I will be setting up a Feedburner.com account to track your traffic as well as subscribers. Unless you specify otherwise, there will be an option to subscribe to your blog by email updates.

I will email you the “Blog & Hosting Information” with important information that will make sense to you in the future (as you learn)!
