Installing WordPress through Your Cpanel
The step by step process of installing WordPress is simpler in your cpanel.
Downloading, uploading, installing WordPress by using a file transfer protocol client is not too difficult, but installing it through your cpanel is the best option for a site owner new to working with his website.
Log onto your website’s cpanel. Under the title Software Services you will see an icon of a smiley face in blue. This is Fantastico De Luxe. Click on it.
On the left hand side is a list of programs which can be installed on your site. Under Blogs, you will find WordPress.
When you choose WordPress, the window in the center of the screen will take you through the process of installing this software on your site. The first window in the set-up will ask you where you want to install WordPress, which will be the website url. The box below should be left blank to install it on your root directory. The next section creates a password for you to access the WordPress administration panel. For security, choose a different user name and password than what you use for your cpanel. The next section is the basic information about your site, which will likely be filled in automatically.
By following the instructions you will go through two more steps, where you will be finalizing the installation, and sending yourself the information about the installation. That is it.
