Help getting started | WordPress.org

We recently purchased a couple of months subscription to hostgator. I am trying to get started on customizing our new website, and I am pulling a blank. the use interface is NOT intuitive.
Is there a good CURRENT video of how to get started making a site on wordpress through hostgator?
Not something generic, but something current and specific.
Are there any good CURRENT articles on how to use wordpress on hostgator to build a website??
Thank you all in advance
