How To Install WordPress (3 Simple Ways)

-

WordPress is the most popular CMS (content management system) in the world, powering over 42% of all websites on the internet. This is due to a flexible learning process (also well known for the 5-minute installation), limitless creation and customization possibilities, and a powerful community behind it. WordPress Installation

WordPress.org is a self-hosted, open-source platform that is free for anyone to use. The main difference from WordPress.com is that you need a domain, a hosting provider and meet certain technical requirements.

In this article, we explain how to install WordPress in three ways - through a hosting provider (easiest way), locally by hosting your website on your own computer, and manually using FTP (data transfer system).

Note that the manual installation requires a bit more technical knowledge, but is doable if you stick to the instructions. We would recommend using the hosting approach because it's the most convenient way. Hence, you need hosting, either way, so shoot two rabbits with one shot!

Requirements Prior To The Installation

Before installation, make sure that your hosting provider meets these WordPress requirements:

  • PHP version 7.4 or greater.
  • MySQL version 5.6 or greater OR
  • MariaDB version 10.1 or greater.
  • HTTPS support

And requirements for local installation:

  • Login Account (user id and password) to the server via FTP or shell
  • Text Editor
  • FTP
  • Your web browser of choice

WordPress recommends using these hostings, but nevertheless, most of the top hosting providers offer one-click WordPress installations, due to the popularity of the platform.

We recommend using Cloudways (managed cloud hosting) since it has user-friendly hosting plans (plus a free trial), a fast setup, and provides excellent uptime. Meaning users get an overall better performance, security, and top-notch support.
