Am I taking good care of my orchid?

I bought a Phalaenopsis Orchid;its white with dark purple spots. I bought a 12" pot, phalaenopsis plant food and phalaenopsis dirt. I keep it in my bedroom next to a window. I just wanted to know if Iam taking proper care of my orchid.

Sounds like you are doing a good job. Hooray for you! It needs bright light but not direct sun. Don't over water and don't let the roots sit in water. Also, orchids like to become pot bound and their roots may grow out of the container. This is okay. The blooms on my phalaenopsis lasted for over two months before they began to die.
