WordPress is a popular content management system (CMS) used by millions of people around the world to create and manage their websites. It’s a free and open-source platform that’s easy to use and customize. If you’re new to WordPress, you might be wondering how to install it on your website. In this article, we’ll show you how to install WordPress step-by-step.

Before we get started, you’ll need to have a few things ready:

1. A domain name and web hosting service.
2. An FTP client, such as FileZilla, to upload files to your web hosting account.
3. A text editor, such as Notepad, to edit files.

Once you have these things ready, you’re ready to install WordPress.

1. Download WordPress

The first step in installing WordPress is to download the latest version from the official WordPress website. Go to wordpress.org/download/ and click the Download button. This will download the WordPress installation files to your computer.

2. Create a Database

Next, you’ll need to create a database for your WordPress website. A database is where all your website’s data is stored, including your posts, pages, comments, and settings. You can create a database using the control panel of your web hosting account. The steps to create a database will vary depending on your hosting provider, but most will have a section called Databases where you can create a new database.

When creating a database, you’ll need to enter a name for the database, a username, and a password. Make sure to write down these details as you’ll need them later.

3. Upload WordPress Files to Your Hosting Account

After you’ve created a database, you’ll need to upload the WordPress files to your web hosting account. To do this, you’ll need to use an FTP client. Open your FTP client and connect to your web hosting account using the login details provided by your hosting provider.

Once you’ve connected to your hosting account, navigate to the directory where you want to install WordPress. This is usually the public_html directory, but it may vary depending on your hosting provider. Upload the WordPress files you downloaded in Step 1 to this directory.

4. Install WordPress

Now that you’ve uploaded the WordPress files to your hosting account, you’re ready to install WordPress. To do this, open your web browser and go to your website’s domain name. You should see the WordPress installation page.

Select your preferred language and click the Continue button. You’ll then see the WordPress installation page where you’ll need to enter your database details.

Enter the database name, username, and password that you created in Step 2. You can leave the database host and table prefix fields as they are. Click the Submit button to continue.

Click the Install WordPress button to complete the installation. WordPress will then install and you’ll be taken to the login page.
