  When I try to go to the admin page, I keep getting this message:

  “The requested URL /wp-admin/your_website_url_here/wp-login.php was not found on this server.

  Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.”

  I’m a bit of a newbie to web design, so could someone give me a step by step guide to fixing this?

  Once you have logged in to wordpress, this link should get you to your dashboard:

  @1tess Thank you for responding it’s actually for my friend’s site at impactboutique.com. She was having problems with setting everything up and I’ve had some experience with wordpress and installing ecwid shopping carts so I told her that I would set everything up for her. So she gave me all of the domain/cpanel info, but I’m having trouble getting to the admin wordpress page for the site so that I can start working on everything.

  Ah. Then you are in the wrong forum. Here we help folks with questions about wp.COM. Your friend has a self-hosted version of wordpress: wp.ORG. Our answers won’t apply.

  Here are differences explained in more detail:
