Hi,
Step-by-step Tutorial
In this simple tutorial I’m going to guide you through the process of installing Wordpress on a cPanel hosting account. It is really easy and with this guide you will master Wordpress installation yourself easily.
Note: It is also possible to install Wordpress on a non-cPanel hosting account, but it is easier with cPanel, so I’m going to explain this option.
1.) You need cPanel web hosting plus a domain name. I would recommend you using BlueHost - it’s an ideal web host for Wordpress and they have great support as well (they got the 2008 Best Support Award).
2.) Once you have your web hosting account with a domain name set up, log in to your cPanel account.
3.) In the cPanel select “Fantastico” (or Fantastico De Luxe)
4.) In Fantastico select “WordPress”
5.) Select “New Installation”
6.) Fill in the form
The field “Install in directory” leave free unless you wish to have your blog installed in a directory of your domain, e.g. yourdomain.com/blog
Then click “Install WordPress”.
7.) Finish the installation
8.) Now you shall see the following:
It is also a good idea to enter your e-mail and have the installation information e-mailed to your mailbox. This may be useful in case you forget your password or username.
9.) Finished.
Now log in to your Wordpress admin panel and start blogging. You shall be able to login from this URL: yourdomain.com/wp-login.php
10.) You might also like to pick out one of some nice Wordpress Themes suitable for your blog that you will like. _________________ Thanks & regards
