How to install WordPress

Install WordPress in a few clicks with Softaculous from cPanel or DirectAdmin.

  1. Log in to your control panel.
  2. Open Softaculous Apps Installer and choose WordPress.
  3. Choose Install.
  4. Pick the domain. Leave In Directory empty to install at the main address (yourbusiness.com) rather than a subfolder.
  5. Set the site name, and an admin username and a strong password. Don't use "admin" as the username.
  6. Choose Install. It takes about a minute.

You can then sign in at yourbusiness.com/wp-admin.

Before you install

  • Make sure your domain points to your hosting, or the site won't be reachable yet.
  • Your plan's free SSL certificate is issued automatically. If the site shows as "not secure" in the first hour, wait a little and reload.

Moving an existing WordPress site instead

We move sites for free. Open a support ticket with the site's address and your old host's details.
