WordPress is popular blog maker nowdays and it is very powerful to use and safe. So we are going to discuss how to install WordPress in your own hosting. So here we go:
Step 1:
Download WordPress From https://wordpress.org and extract it into a folder on your desktop.
Step 2:
Now go to https://www.000webhost.com/
and sign up for an account. When you have signed up, using your personal details, you’ll see a page where the titel will say ‘List of your domains‘. Choose your domain, and press ‘Go to CPanel‘.
Step 3:
When you’re at your CPanel, scroll down until you see a Titel that says ‘>> Files‘. Under that select ‘File Manager‘. Now a login screen appears. Just leave the username, and in the password type the password you used when you signed up. Then you should get into your FTP Server. Here you checkmark the ‘Public_HTML‘ folder, and press ‘Delete‘. Then you go to your desktop and open the WordPress archive, and inside it you name the WordPress folder ‘Public_HTML‘. When you’re done doing that, you go back to your ftp server, and press ‘Upload‘. Now you’ll see a page with 2 coloums. The first one is for normal files, and the second one is for archives. Press ‘Browse‘ or ‘Choose File‘ at the second coloum. Now browse to your desktop, and choose the WordPress archive. Then click the big green checkmark. Now you should see a page where it says that it was succesfully extracted and placen. Now click the big green checkmark again, and then the blue arrow.
Step 4:
Now go back to your CPanel, and find a Titel that says ‘>> Software / Services‘ and choose ‘MySQL‘. Here you need to create a new database. In ‘MySQL database name:‘ you can type whatever you want your database to be called. In this tutorial we will be using ‘Test123‘. In the next one called ‘MySQL user name:‘ you’ll type the same as in database name, so we type in ‘Test123‘. Then you’ll need to type in a password. It needs to contain both numbers and letters. When you’re done doing that, you press ‘Create Database‘. A page where all the information you just typed in, will stand. DO NOT CLOSE THIS!.
Step 5:
Open a new tab, or window, and browse to your website/domain. A WordPress page should show if you’re done everything in Step 3 correctly. Here it will say that you need to make a configuration file, or something. Press the button. Now you’ll need to fill in the information from your MySQL database. Just go back to the other tab/window, and copy the information. Just leave ‘Table Prefix‘ as it is. Then press ‘Submit‘, and it should browse to your Admin Panel! Then you could simply open a new tab and go to your website again to see how it looks.
Congratulations you have installed WordPress in 000host.com
