Blog Install WordPress Tutorial

Posted on Apr 5, 2010

WordPress is simple to install on your GoDaddy account. If you don’t have a GoDaddy account, go to the [Wordpress Download] webpage and go through their 5 minute installation process. If you have a deluxe GoDaddy hosting account like I do, here are the steps you follow:

1. Go to your GoDaddy Hosting Control Center. Do this by logging into your GoDaddy account and select the Hosting Account link. Once on this page, click on the “Your Applications” button
   
2. Then Select the Blogs link in the Administration Tools Sidebar.
   
3. Then, select the WordPress Application
   
4. Then, click the “Install Now” button and go through the installation wizard. Note: make sure your username and password are set up to be your Administrative username and password. You can add yourself as a user later and set up administrative rights.
   
5. You will receive an email when your installation is complete.
