I have a local installation of MediaWiki installed using WampServer; my next step is to move it to a domain name so that it will be visible on the search engines; I did some Googling for instructions on how to do this, but didn't find any specifically for MediaWiki, if you could help me or point me in the right direction I would be grateful.~~~~

you need to change $wgServer in LocalSettings.php to be new domain name. Otherwise everything is identical to any other webserver.
