    Server/Hostname:
    Database:
    Username:
    Password:
    Table Prefix:

    I have no idea how to answer any of those categories. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

    Server/Hostname: this will likely be GoDaddy servers. If you got an email from them when you established your account, it should have this info.

    Database: the name of the database that you create for WP. Its usually something like “domain_xxx” where domain is the domain name that you’ve purchased (minus the .com), and you get to pick the xxx part.

    Username: the username that you use to log into your GoDaddy hosting account.

    Password: your GoDaddy hosting account password

    Table Prefix: most likely the default (localhost) will work. I wouldn’t change this unless it fails.

    Welcome to blogging. Come back if you have more questions. This may also be helpful to you.
