In reply to Scarlett.

I appreciate you, Scarlett! Thanks for the kind words and I’m really glad you’ve been finding my content so helpful 🙂

The short answer to your question is that you’ll just need to choose a hosting company to sign up with (I recommend Bluehost or Dreamhost most these days) and when you sign up for a hosting plan—which is the infrastructure that’ll “host” your domain name and allow it to go live on the Internet—you’ll select the option that you already have a domain name you want to use. Depending upon where your domain name was registered, there may be a transfer process involved, but the good thing about choosing a company like Bluehost or Dreamhost is that their technical support team will be able to help you through that process quickly. Then, once you’re “inside” with your web host, you’ll have the option to quickly install WordPress to run on your domain name… and boom! You’ll have a WP-powered blog.

If you want to go with Bluehost or Dreamhost, I get discounted rates for my readers if you sign up using one of the links here:

SO glad I found you!
I’ve been thinking for awhile about going with WordPress for my blog. I already own the domain name (unless I end up going another direction entirely). How do I “connect” an existing domain name to WP?

SO much to consider.
It’s like naming a child 😬
SO much to learn…yikes!
Thanks,
Scarlett
