wordpress is great, there are loads of free template, look at one you like that is clear and clutter free. if you dont want a free one have a look at woothemes they have some nice ones also elegant themes

Definately Wordpress as it has a great ammount of plugins which can be used to help your SEO and the free themes are really great and easy to use once you get used to them. If you take a look at my website, its one I made myself and uses Wordpress, and for a completely free website and a bit of time, im very proud of it!  www.blackpool-windowcleaners.co.uk :)

Hi Richard
I have installed it as a Web Application through my Hosting site but can't get to grips with it yet.
I'm used to the old index.html etc...
What is the home page named?
Sorry but I'm at that level with Wordpress :(
Numpty!!!!

Hi Granny,

When you say the home page, are you refering to the page to log into your website now its installed so you can start to edit the page? if so its www.yourdomainname.co(m or .uk etc)/wp-login.php. From there you can then start editing your website and building content. As long as your WP is installed correctly, when you go to the domain name as it currrently stands, you should have a one page site on view with the words "Hello World" showing.

Hope that helps, and if you get stuck, let me know and I will see what I can do for you! :)
