This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start writing!<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trying to figure out how to install WordPress? There are a few different methods you can use, each of which I\u2019ll give an in-depth guide for.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First of all, why are there different methods for installing WordPress in the first place? The answer is simple\u2026 Because of WordPress\u2019 popularity, there are a number of helper tools that make it easier to install the platform on different servers and hosts. As a result, there\u2019s not simply one choice for how to install WordPress but multiple alternative ones.<\/p>\n\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this post, I\u2019ll give you a tutorial for each of the common methods for installing WordPress. To give you some guidance for which method you should choose, I\u2019ve ordered the guides from easiest to most time consuming. So if you\u2019re just looking for the quickest and easiest way to install WordPress, start at the top!<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/how-to-install-wordpress\/#1\">Method #1: Choose a host that comes with WordPress pre-installed<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/how-to-install-wordpress\/#2\">Method #2: How to install WordPress via cPanel and autoinstallers<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/how-to-install-wordpress\/#3\">Method #3: How to install WordPress manually via FTP<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/how-to-install-wordpress\/#4\">Method #4: How to install WordPress on your own computer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/how-to-install-wordpress\/#conclusion\">Wrapping things up<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1\">Method #1: Choose a host that comes with WordPress pre-installed<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The easiest way to install WordPress is to just pick a host that does it for you. Nowadays, many WordPress-specific hosts will let you choose to have WordPress pre-installed. That means once you sign up for hosting, you can jump straight into your WordPress site. The whole question of \u201chow to install WordPress\u201d is irrelevant in such a case!<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are a few recommended hosts that will pre-install WordPress for you:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Bluehost<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 affordable and comes with pre-installed WordPress. Starts from $2.95 a month for one site using\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">this link<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/siteground.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">SiteGround<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 has tons of WordPress-specific features that make your life easier. Starts from $3.95 a month for one site.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, many\u00a0<a href=\"\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">managed WordPress hosts<\/a>\u00a0will pre-install WordPress for you, but the price tags on those can be higher.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t worry if you already picked a different host, though.\u00a0<strong>Most other hosts still make it super easy to install WordPress.<\/strong>\u00a0But you will need to click at least a few buttons. More on that in the next section:<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2\">Method #2: How to install WordPress via cPanel and autoinstallers<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">cPanel is the dashboard that most web hosts give their customers. When you sign up for hosting, your host should provide you with login details for cPanel. And for most hosts, the cPanel interface looks something like this:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"579\" height=\"316\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In your cPanel interface, your host should give you something called an autoinstaller. Autoinstallers basically automate the full WordPress install process that I\u2019ll outline in the next section. So instead of needing to do everything manually, you just input some basic information, click a button, and the autoinstaller installs WordPress for you.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are a few different autoinstallers you might encounter:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Softaculous<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Fantastico<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>QuickInstall<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>MOJO Marketplace<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And while there might be a few minor interface differences, all of the autoinstallers more or less function the same. So while I\u2019ll show you an example using Softaculous, the exact interface for your autoinstaller might look a tiny bit different.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To get started, find the link to the WordPress autoinstaller in cPanel and give it a click:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-2.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the next screen, you should see an\u00a0<strong>Install Now<\/strong>\u00a0link (no matter which autoinstaller you\u2019re using). Just give that another click:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-3.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, you\u2019ll need to enter details for your WordPress install. Again, this interface should generally look the same no matter which autoinstaller you\u2019re using.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, fill in the protocol and domain name where you want to install WordPress:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-4.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For\u00a0<strong>Protocol<\/strong>, if you\u2019re using an\u00a0<a href=\"\/\">SSL certificate<\/a>, you should choose HTTPS. Otherwise, you should choose HTTP. Unless you purposefully\u00a0<a href=\"\/\">installed an SSL Certificate<\/a>,\u00a0<strong>the default is HTTP.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, choose the directory in which you want to install WordPress. For 99% of situations,\u00a0<strong>you should leave this field blank<\/strong>. Leaving it empty means WordPress will be installed at your main domain. That is, if your domain is\u00a0<code>YOURDOMAIN.com<\/code>, then WordPress will be installed at\u00a0<code>YOURDOMAIN.com<\/code>\u00a0rather than something like\u00a0<code>YOURDOMAIN.com\/mywpsite<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-5.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A bit further down, you need to enter your\u00a0<strong>Site Settings<\/strong>. These are just the default values for your site\u2019s name and description. You can always change them later from the WordPress interface:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-6.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do\u00a0<strong>not<\/strong>\u00a0enable WordPress Multisite unless you\u2019re specifically trying to\u00a0<a href=\"\/\">create a multisite network<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll also need to create login credentials for your WordPress account. You\u2019ll use this username\/password combination to log into your WordPress dashboard after installation, so make sure that you remember it:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-7.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the specific autoinstaller that you\u2019re using, you might see a few other options as well. You can safely ignore these. That is, it\u2019s fine to leave anything I didn\u2019t cover as the defaults.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you\u2019ve filled out everything, make sure to click\u00a0<strong>Install<\/strong>\u00a0at the bottom of the screen. It might take a minute or so to run. Then, you should get a confirmation. You can log into your brand new WordPress install by going to\u00a0<code>YOURDOMAIN.com\/wp-admin<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3\">Method #3: How to install WordPress manually<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personally, I don\u2019t really see a need to use this process anymore because of how simple and ubiquitous the autoinstallers above are. But if you want to learn how to install WordPress manually, keep on reading.\u00a0<strong>If you\u2019re a beginner, just use the autoinstaller process I outlined above.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To run the famous 5-minute install, you will need an FTP program to upload files. I use\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/filezilla-project.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FileZilla<\/a>, but you there are plenty of quality free FTP programs.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start by downloading the latest version of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WordPress from wordpress.org<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-8.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then unzip the file and upload it to the\u00a0<code>public_html<\/code>\u00a0(or similar) directory of your website. If you\u2019re not sure how to log in to FTP, ask your host for your FTP account information:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-9.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While that\u2019s going on, head over to your cPanel account and find the\u00a0<strong>MySQL Databases<\/strong>\u00a0option:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-10.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should see an option to\u00a0<strong>Create a New Database<\/strong>. Enter a name for your database and click\u00a0<strong>Create Database:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-11.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The name can be whatever you want \u2013 just make sure that you remember it. You\u2019ll need it later on.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, you need to actually create a user for your database. So on that same page, scroll down to\u00a0<strong>MySQL Users<\/strong>\u00a0and create a new user:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-12.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you\u2019ve created the user, make sure to give it access to the database you created:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-13.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the next page, also make sure to give that username\u00a0<strong>All Privileges:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-14.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, assuming the FTP transfer has finished, you can go to your domain name to complete the installation process. When you visit your domain, you should see the WordPress install wizard. First, you need to choose your language:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-15.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, make sure you have the details for your database name, user, and password handy. Enter them when prompted:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-16.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If all goes well, you should be able to run the WordPress install:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-17.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Give your WordPress site a title and enter the information necessary to create your admin account:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-18.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then click\u00a0<strong>Install WordPress.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that\u2019s it! You just learned how to install WordPress manually. You can now log in with the account details that you entered during the install process:<\/p>\n\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalhubz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/how-to-install-wordpress-19.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4\">Method #4: How to install WordPress on your own computer<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to create a sandbox where you can learn more about WordPress, you can install WordPress on your own computer. You\u2019ll have a fully functioning WordPress install that you can play around with, it just won\u2019t be accessible to anyone else.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is, it will only be available on your own computer. This is also known as a \u201clocalhost\u201d.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re interested in such a setup, we wrote two posts on how to install everything:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"\/\">Installing WordPress locally on Windows with WAMP<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\">Installing WordPress locally on Windows with XAMPP<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\">Installing WordPress locally on MAC<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conclusion\">Wrapping things up<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Again, if you\u2019re a beginner, just use the autoinstaller that your host (hopefully) provides. It\u2019s easy, fast, and no different than installing WordPress yourself. Or better yet, choose a host that comes with WordPress pre-installed.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to learn how to install WordPress manually just for the pride of it, then go ahead and try. But I promise you that after you\u2019ve installed WordPress manually for the hundredth time, you\u2019ll become a big fan of autoinstallers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to WordPress.
