   I am currently using my own webhosting to run my blog, and since my blog is not my homepage, there is a link and the URL shows up
   smartchoicedesign.info/wordpress
   The thing is, I want the address to show up smartchoicedesign.info/blog

   please help!

   Moving WordPress Within Your Site

   This includes changing its URL, which is essentially what you are doing by changing the directory name.

   if you are changing your directory name. the remeber to take back up of database and all other root files, then create new folder like

   abcd.com/blog/ and then put all files and install wordpress again and connect already created database.

   I have created folders like with hyphens also for my site also.

   So you said I should back-up my data. then create a new directory called "blog" then move all the files from /wordpress to /blog?
