    Did you create a WordPress.com or WordPress.org account? If you want a hosted blog, go to WordPress.com

    WordPress.org offers files which, if you want a self hosted blog, you must get a host, upload them to the host, and then install them using the instructions.

    Are you talking about wordpress.org or wordpress.com :confused:

    If you want to go with self hosted blog then buy a domain,buy a hosting and upload your downloaded wp files there and go through instruction given with it.

    DON.
