My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

hey guys, i am a hosting noob lol.

i really have no idea how to install my blog...

here is what i have...

a host at "bamafan2989.lime-designs.net" you can check it out, it's just a bad site i did in like 5 minutes for a class at school.

do i just install the b2evolution folder into the root directory or what?

any help please :[

It all depends on where you want your blogs to live.

If you currently have a website on your root ( sorry, your links broken so it's a tad hard to tell ) then the chances are you want to install it in a sub folder ( /blogs/ is probably an unimaginative choice, do something zany and install them to /wysiwib/ ;) )

In cPanel search for MySQL databases or databases and create a new one with arbitrary name. Once this is done keep you eyes open, because it might (or might not) give a clue to how and where you can access this database. usually it's "localhost" and username / password are the ones you used to access cPanel, but again, not always.
On the server create a folder called blog and copy to it (use cPanel or FTP) *the contents of* the folder b2evolution/blogs/ from the package to this folder.
Now go to a browser and type: bradjohnson.lime-designs.net/blog/install/ to complete installation.

Good luck
