How do I install a WordPress theme and do I need to be a host? (3 posts)

    I have a domain name (www.dereabel.com) which I bought from GoDaddy. I have a WordPress theme (Debut) and now I have no clue of how to use my theme. I thought I could simply link the WordPress theme to my GoDaddy domain name but now I don't know if I need to be a host.
    Can I use it in Tumblr? Do I have to be a ‘host’? Can I use my theme with WordPress and keep my domain name (www.derekabel.com)?

    To self=host WordPress & use your own theme, you have to start by installing WordPress.

    Yes, you will need to install WordPress and be the admin of your own self-hosted WordPress to use your own theme.
