Sorry i am a totally newbie to this, and i searched but could not find exactly what i was looking for.
How do i add a Serendipity bog into my website? I designed the page(s) and would like to have this blog flow into my Blog page.
Is this possible?

It would probably be easier to give you practical advice if you'd provide a link to said page. :)

Basic installation: http://www.s9y.org/36.html

I assume that you would like to install Serendipity seperately (e.g. in a subdirectory 'blog' or something on your web space) and link to that blog from your existing web site. If you want to 'wrap' your existing web site 'around' a Serendipity blog, you'll likely need docs for

Embedding s9y: http://www.s9y.org/55.html

which is a tad more complicated. In general, the

FAQ: http://www.s9y.org/11.html

is always a good starting point and/or reference for documentation.

And if you have any further questions about all this, just ask here. :)

THANK YOU YL!
I'll look over the documentation, but i would add the blog to this page.. http://www.landscapingbysunscapes.com/tips.html as a "lawn tips" type of thing.
I installed the program straight from godaddy so that part is done, i'd just like the blog to draw some traffic to the client and give them some SEO.

Terribly sorry, but GoDaddy uses (I think, haven't heard about those in a long time) a “customized” s9y as part of their “1-click installation”. The s9y development team has no knowledge of GoDaddy's changes to this version, so (in most cases) we can not offer support for it.

Happy to help, if possible, though.
