How To Install WordPress

There are a few things you need before we can get started. First off, you need a domain name and hosting company for your website to appear online. Next, you must decide the type of WordPress installation which suits your needs. There are numerous methods which use different software and platforms including cPanel, FTP with FileZilla, and MySQL. For an optimized WordPress hosting option, check out EasyWP.  WordPress Installation

Users wanting to take advantage of the platform’s famous five-minute installation will want to make sure their host offers a solution like Softaculous. For a manual installation, you’ll be using FTP or cPanel. Users looking to create a test environment for WordPress will perform their installation locally using WAMP or MAMP or create a local server using Microsoft’s Visual Studio. 

Installing WordPress automatically

Many web hosting partners offer one-click installation in combination with cPanel. These services let you Install WordPress without having to get your hands dirty. We recommend the Softaculous automatic app installer to install WordPress in a few clicks. To use Softaculous, login to your hosts cPanel account and locate the Softaculous/ WordPress installer icon in the Auto Installers section. Click on one of these icons to launch an auto-installer for WordPress. Now follow these instructions to install WordPress using Softaculous:


  1. Log into your cPanel.

  2. Select the Softaculous Apps Installer icon. Namecheap users can follow this guide to installing Softaculous..

  3. Click the WordPress logo.

  4. Click Install tab to proceed.

  5. On this page, you need to fill out the details of your WordPress installation.

    • Choose the domain - enter the domain you wish to install WordPress on.

    • Specify the root folder for installation. The Directory field is empty by default, leaving this way WordPress assumes you’re using WordPress on your website, for instance, yourdomain.com. You may install it to a subfolder if just your blog will be powered by WordPress for example, yourdomain.com/blog, type "blog" in this field.

    • Database Name can be left as the default.

    • The default wp_; Table Prefix can remain, but for increased security, we recommend to changing it to something unique, like wpwebsitename_.

    • Fill the Site Settings (you can change these at any time as needed).

       6.  Hit Install when you’re ready.

This is where Softaculous now takes over. It will run the installer with the settings you provided and deliver a success message on completion, along with a link to your site and another link to your WordPress admin area. Click the latter link and login to your dash to start work on your website.
