 * And yes, if “public_html” does not work, move it to “www” but that seems a little
   odd to me. Ah well, what do I know.

 * Thanks again. All of the files & directories are now in public html but when 
   I enter [http://scoremoreclients.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php](http://scoremoreclients.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php)
   I still get a page not found error. Does that url string need to be changed? 
   Any ideas?

 * That’s because your wordpress isn’t installed in /blog/ Go and check out [http://www.scoremoreclients.com/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.scoremoreclients.com/wp-admin/install.php)

 * Dave, okay so I guess it’s installed, right? If so, how do I clear my old database
   tables?

 * Why do they need clearing? Nothing was put in them before wordpress was installed,
   so no cleaning to be done.
 * If you want your blog at scoremoreclients.com/blog
 * then move all the wordpress files to /public_html/blog/
 * Hope you get the pic now.
