    Ok, I already have an account with Host Gator. Got one site with HG that I've pretty much abandoned. I have the HG "Baby" account.

    My Plan: Have several "WordPress Niche Sites" using this template a WordPress template I found at DoshDosh "Prosense"..I can't post the link..not enough post made.

    I want to have separate domain name for each site...not subdomain because there would be no correlation.

    I assume each domain would have it's own root folder?

    Where I'm confused, well let's say one area I'm confused on is this...I have already downloaded the Prosense template.

    What are the steps in putting this together?

    1. Buy Domain name thru HG for 1st wordpress niche site.
    2. Go to Cpanel...Install Prosense WordPress template using Fantastico?

    How do I tie or associate my domain name to the uploaded template?
    Do I have to upload a new Prosense template for each niche site?

    Thats enough for now, my head hurts!

    I hope someone can make sense of my confusion!

    thanks in advance

    You install themes. Each domain (or rather each instance) of WordPress will have its own set of themes and plugins.

    Talk to Hostgator about installing add-on domains.
