Can anyone help a newbie out with Wordpress?

I just made a blog on wordpress, I'm trying to host it on hostgator. Do I need to have word press pro? How will I manage my blog after I move it to hostgator and etc? Anyone got a guide?

you shouldnt have to do anything, you should be able to log into your admin the same way

I'll try to make it short

Go to your hosting cpanel.
Find softaculous or fantastico de luxe and click it.
then choose wordpress>install
then options panel will come
choose the username and password
domain you want to install wordpress
after that click submit and your dashboard url and other details will be there.

It will be like domain.com/wp-admin.

After I transfer my blog, do I still use wordpress to blog or use a different program?

Do you not think you should have found all this out before paying for something you have no idea how to use... You don't "transfer" your blog anywere, just simply install wordpress through CPanel and then go to yoursite.com/wp-admin, log in. Should be pretty straight forward from there.
