Am new to blogging and thought I'd gicve it a try and jump right in by using Woprdpress which I have read is one of the most popular blogging programs but I am having some serious issues with it.
1. Once installed, the blog I created seems to load very slow:

2. Every time I go to a new Wordpress page within my blog try to make a change, the new page loads extremely slow and then I get a page not found/cannot find server error message. By refreshing my browser 2 or 3 times eventually the page loads but then when I make the change and try to upload it the whole process starts again.
Are these issues with my host or simply Wordpress issues?
3. I can't seem to upload any images to include in my blog. I have followed Wordpress instructions but the files won't upload. Also I have tried to just include an image into the body of the text but the image editor doesn't have a brwose button to find the image on my computer. Do I have to physically type in its location? (This doesn't seem right)
4. I just posted my first post and tried to include a hyperlink within the message but wordpress doesn't recognize it. You must be able to add links within the body of your posts and if so how?
5. I have tried to correct these problems manually with a text editor but can't seem to find the page where my posts are posted. Does any one know the default (index) page so I can simply make these changes in Dreamweaver?
I know I have a lot of issues it's just that Wordpress (or my hosting provider) is making me extremely frustrated and I want to try and resolve the problems before moving hosts or scraping Wordpress altogether. Any help would be appreciated.
