 * Hi everyone, I am having major trouble trying to set up this WordPress.org thing.
 * Long story short, this is what happened;
 * 1. Needed to make a website to advertise myself as an artist. Great. Easiest 
   way – WordPress blog. Signed up, etc.
    2. Bought a domain name, web hosting and
   DNS hosting with an Australian hosting company. Tried and failed to install WordPress
   on there. Did some digging and found that I could get the one-click install via
   GoDaddy. Thought it was worth paying for to save myself the hassle. 3. Signed
   up to GoDaddy with the economy WP hosting plan, installed the app. When I go 
   to the [http://www.i-am-neykid.com/wp-admin](http://www.i-am-neykid.com/wp-admin)
   it says “this doesn’t exist on the server”. 4. I think it’s something to do with
   the DNS thing but I have NFI how to get it to point to my GoDaddy hosting as 
   I can’t find a DNS address. I don’t even know if this is the issue.
 * The reason why I didn’t get it sorted out on my “old” hosting was because it 
   kept changing “WordPress” and “WPress” in the “create Mysql database and user”
   to username_WordPress and username_WPress” and every combo I tried resulted in
   the same “so and so does not exist in this directory”.
 * ARGHHH I am so frustrated at the moment, having fiddled around with this for 
   the past 3 days and not gotten anywhere >.< Obviously I am missing something 
   very obvious or am just completely stupid. HELP!

 * log in to your godaddy hosting section
    find the name of their dns (domain name
   servers) copy this down go to company you bought domain name from put in values
   from godaddy dns in the name server fields allow 24-48 hours for the update

 * I can totally relate to you. I went through this recently and wanted to throw
   my computer through the wall. Server companies and domain companies need better
   customer service. lol I finally figured it out through trial and error and agree
   with samboll’s answer.
