 * Hi to all.
    Why my home button at insuraati.com takes me back to where i came
   from i.e insuraati.wordpress.com ? I installed wordpress on bluehost and then
   imported the whole theme from insuraati.wordpress.com as well … Which somehow
   left the title logo back there 🙁 Any Help would be welcome . Thanks

 * When you move a site, you must replace the old URLs and paths with the new ones.
   Some of these are stored in the database in ‘serialized’ form where the string
   length is stored along with the string. You must use special tools to search 
   and replace the old values with the new ones.
 * If you replace an old URL with a new one of a different length, it will break
   the serialization, causing many different problems.
 * If the old site is still available, you can use the steps shown in this article
   to copy the site: [http://wordpress.mcdspot.com/2012/08/22/migrating-a-wordpress-site-step-by-step/](http://wordpress.mcdspot.com/2012/08/22/migrating-a-wordpress-site-step-by-step/)
 * If the old site is not available, and you still have a copy of the database from
   that site, you should be able to use this tool to make the changes: [http://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/](http://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/)
