Thanks, but already went thru all that several times, thanks to a great youtube video that walks beginners thru it

after I think the install is complete, I can’t log in to joomla install with godaddy Cpanel or browser cpanel login which comes back as 404. Godaddy support has been useless and keeps pushing godaddy's installatron of joomla vs 3rd party browser, I have been reading about htaccess issues but that is beyond my current understanding, hoping to find a mentor with some joomla love to talk with me to figure out what I am missing, I am a little past complete newbie as I have completed one site but want templates with samples to get look like what I see in the template demos, as all the instalIs I have tried thru installatron in godaddy gives me a very simple look and nothing like demo on joomla template sellers websites. I looked into akeeba kickstart but the docs on that really scared me with some things I might not get right. I really love joomla but as a beginner with no background in programming I have found most of the template sellers don't really make it easy for a beginner to figure all this out. I get more out of youtube and the joomlabeat podcast, but still so confused on so many different things that I can't find easy to understand info on.
