Installing WordPress on HolyWebHosts (the simplest way)

Before you begin, you will need Economy hosting or higher. I HIGHLY recommend linux hosting. If you choose to install on Windows your mileage will vary. I’ve tried it twice and always ran into problems. WordPress works great on Linux hosting.

I’ll assume your hosting is already setup.

From the hosting control center you will see Value Applications.  It can be found by clicking on the Your Applications image or going to the content menu and selecting Value Applications.

From the Value Applications area you have access to install many different tools. We all know WordPress is the best so we’ll focus on that. To find the wordpress click on Blogs and then click the WordPress link.

Wordpress-setup-Open the WordPress Installer

A little information about WordPress will appear. Click on the Install Now button and follow the instruction to complete the setup. It should take a couple minutes to complete the steps and may take 30 minutes to complete the process on the server.
