How to Install a WordPress Blog

There are two common ways to install a WordPress blog on your web server:

1) using the admin control panel of your web hosting account, and

2) manual installation.

On this page, you will learn how to create a WP blog using the control panel within your hosting account.



Install WordPress Via the Control Panel

The easiest and fastest way to install a WordPress blog on your web server is to do it from the admin control panel of your web hosting account.

If your hosting provider uses cPanel as the control panel, here are the steps to run a WordPress installation:

1. Log into the control panel (cPanel) of your hosting account.

2. Click on Fantastico (or another script installer).

3. On the navigation bar to the left, click on WordPress.

4. In the window that opens, click on New Installation.

5. If you host more than one domain on this account, choose which one to install WordPress on.



6. In the slot below, type in a directory name to install your blog in a new directory (your blog name is fine). Leave empty to install in the root directory.

7. Type in a username and a password. Write them down as you will use them when logging into the admin area of WordPress!

8. The Base Configuration settings are optional, enter/change anything you like, or leave the slots empty. You can enter/change these things in the WP admin area later.

9. Click on Install WordPress.

10. The next window is showing the details of your new WordPress installation. If you need to change something, click the back button of your web browser and make any changes. If everything is ok, click on Finish Installation.

11. In the next window, you have all the details necessary to log in to your new WP blog admin area (username, password and URL to the admin area). You also have the option to email this information to yourself. Recommended!

12. Click Back to WordPress overview to see all your WP installations. From here you can start a new installation, or delete any you don't need.

WordPress Platform For Websites

The WordPress platform was originally designed to be a blogging platform but is now widely recognized to be a complete content management system (CMS). This means that it offers an alternative method of creating and managing a website quickly and easily. If you are using one of our recommended hosting companies, the installation of a WordPress blog is very easy and fast. In your hosting account, go to your control panel (cPanel) and find Fantastico (or another script installer). A script installer is able to install a WordPress blog with a couple of clicks of your mouse button. See our WordPress Installation pages. NOTE: Your website on the WordPress platform must have a domain name before it can be visible on the internet. Alternatively, you can install it in a subdirectory of an existing domain. However, a business website *must* have its own domain name in order to be taken seriously and attract as much traffic as possible. Inside the Admin Area When the installation...

And it doesn't cost anything if you do the necessary work yourself. What social media marketing means is utilizing social networking sites (like Facebook, Twitter, MySpace etc.) and social bookmarking sites (like StumbleUpon, Delicious, Digg etc.) to promote your website or business.
