How do I install WordPress? Print

0

cPanel → Softaculous → WordPress → Install.

Choose the domain (use https:// and the www or root version you actually want).
Leave the directory empty to install at the top level, or set /blog to install in a subfolder.
Set a site name, admin username, password and a real admin email — the admin email is how you reset the password later.
Install. When it finishes, Softaculous gives you the admin URL and a login link.

WordPress plans ship with WordPress pre-installed, LiteSpeed Cache enabled and a staging copy, so you can start editing immediately.
