Beginning to Blog
Not so Easy to Set Up a Website
I have read and looked at an abundance of you tube videos in setting up my website, but I am still struggling with some things.
I have tried DIVI theme and Elementor Plus and have spent dollars that I perhaps should not have. I am currently back with elementor Pro as i have found it easier to use and with the help of you tube have started to finally add substance and changes to my website...Beach Blue Cottage.
Siteground
I am using Siteground after reading many good things about them but I have had a few problems which I can't seem to get an answer to.
I have contacted them twice re: adding html to my page to claim my website but still do not have a solution. I'm not sure if it's my inability to describe my problem or the question being one they have no answers for.
Has anyone else had a similar problem?
I have read so much about the value of Pinterest to my blog but still can't seem to be able to claim my website. This is extremely frustrating as I can truly see the value this would add to my blog. I absolutely love Pinterest and pin on my personal account just about every day. I have found so much inspiration for home decor, recipes, craft help and ideas that I want to incorporate this in my website....I will keep researching.
Learning Curve
I must say at my age it is great to have my brain thinking about new things. It can be a bit frustrating when I do not know perhaps the correct terminology, but on a plus side I have researched and learnt so much already, can't wait each day to learn something else.
Thank you You Tube and Pinterest you are saving me quite a bit at the moment
So I will continue to make mistakes, purchase things I don't need or use, but I will also be learning a new skill which excites me.
I hope you follow along my journey, laugh at my mistakes and stories and maybe even learn how to make things from Downunder.

I use Divi. If you still want to use that one, I might be able to give you some help. You can pm me, if you like.
Sounds like you have some struggles, but you are about to start a journey that I believe will cure some of those struggles. Jump into the training and take your time. You will not be disappointed.
Ask questions when you have them and put on your walking shoes and thinking cap. This is just the beginning.

Siteground has solid hosting and their tech support is really awesome. Hope you get it resolved sooner.
However, are you aware you can host up to 10 domains with WA. Site support is awesome, you have fixes and solution happen in a snap.
Pleased to meet you Coral, and all the best.
Thank you Abie, yes i have tried to resolve but to be honest with the help of You Tube I have found some of my solutions.
Looking at how to change to WA...not sure yet how to do that.
Hi, you have a choice either transfer to WA or
update your domain DNS settings to point to WA. Here are the DNS settings.
ns1 . mywahosting . com
ns2 . mywahosting . com
These settings will be updated within your domain registrar (where you purchased your domain) after the transfer has taken place.
If transferring, you'd need the EPP authorization code can fetched by logging into your current registrar and looking under your domain
