Wordpress website?

Hi
Can anyone advise me regarding the creation of a wordpress.org website?
I have started a Photo booth business and as part of the purchase it came with hosting and a wordpress.org website. It has pages linked to their database/servers for example booking, contact and terms and conditions.
I have tried to set it up, but it is proving quite difficult and very time consuming.
Do any of you know someone that can help and or design for me?
I would also like some advice as to how much this might cost?
Ideally I would like to be able to run things on my own once set up.

:question:

Thanks for reading and for all your help.
ps. pm me if you need!

Treat me kindly I`m just Confused :confused::D

    Hi
    I have set up a wordpress site myself - though not in the way you describe.
    I contacted a hosting company and registered the name
    The site once set up has a Control panel which allows you to load various programs - one such is wordpress
    You can thene select various site designs, called "themes" depending on your needs. For my site, wwhich is to do with art and sculpture, I chose the atahualpa theme, which is very easy to configure and has goosd support.

    There are various add-ons you can get, for example my site uses a gallery addon - I simply upload the pictures I want displaying and put the relevant code onto the pages I want the picture galleries to display. This sounds hareder than it is, as instructions for most things are very straightforward.

    Cost of design depends on how many pages and what exactly you wish to do.
    Their are plenty of worpdress webdesigner available so I dont feel cost will hurt you that much.
