    Have you spoken to your hosts about this? When did you register the domain name?

    Yes. But they push me to you.I have already an existing site, but do not want to replace it immediately till this new site is built. My doamin name should be registered a few years back.

    theartofteddybears,

    Your domain name, and I suppose it’s theartofteddybears.com, has different name servers than bluehost. It means your current website hosted elsewhere.

    The link http://66.147.244.243/~theartu1/ shows “Welcome to searchezy.com” for some reason, not theartofteddybears.com. It could be just bluehost error, or you set it as your domain too. It actually allows to access http://66.147.244.243/~theartu1/wp-admin/ but you’ll probably go no further from that page.

    Make sure you have all the wordpress files in public_html folder. You’ll need to reinstall it and set http://66.147.244.243/~theartu1/ as SiteURL for wordpress (you’ll be able to change it later to your real domain name). Once everything will be ok, you’ll need to change SiteURL to your domain name(I recommend the phpMyAdmin method).
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL

    Then you’ll need to change DNS of your domain name from your domain name control panel to bluehost.
    https://www.bluehost.com/cgi/help/42

    You’ll be able to see your new website at bluehost in 24-72 hours from then.

    Note, that current website http://www.theartofteddybears.com/ will not be available after your change DNS. If you want it to available at blueshost too, then you should move it’s files and database to bluehost.

    A little typo:)
