10K How to Setup Wordpress

This assumes that you already have GoDaddy.com hosting "Economy Linux Hosting" or any kind of Linux hosting.

(click on the image to see a larger version)

1) You log into your GoDaddy account
howto

2) On the left hand menu choose "Hosting"
howto

3) Choose "Manage Account" on your hosting package
howto

4) Choose the ad of "Hosting Connection" on the far right hand side. Click "Next >" on the bottom of the ads to get to the right one, called "Hosting Connection"
howto

5) On the Left hand side, choose "Blogs" and choose "Wordpress" Then click "INSTALL NOW!" which will take you through the steps of installing it. Make sure to make a note of the directory you want to install it into (e.g. yourwebsite.com OR yourwebsite.com/blog OR something like that) and the admin login and password.
howto

6) When you Install the software, it will setup the database and install a default version of Wordpress onto your hosting.

7) You may go to that link and review the installation.

If you'd like to add "pizazz" to your site, go to:
http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/ and choose a theme, which is like a "skin" that goes over your Wordpress installation. Ask a web developer to FTP that into your Wordpress folder.

ADVANCED: If you feel comfortable dealing with FTP or file transfer, consider installing your own theme: all Wordpress Themes may be stored in the root directory of your Wordpress installation in the "wp-content/themes" folder. You may access that theme when you login to the Wordpress "Dashboard," which is the administrator back-end control panel of Wordpress.




8) To blog, you simply login at your blog login page. This is typically the link to wp-login.php within your blog folder. So, for example, if you've installed the blog here:
http://www.yoursite.com/blog

then the login is:
http://www.yoursite.com/blog/wp-login.php

howto

9) You may do a "quick publish" directly when you login at the "Dashboard" by simply adding in the title, text, and tags (separated by commas).
howto

10) You may also do search for the "Posts" menu bar (on the left) and then select "Add New" to add a new post. Then simply add in your title, text, tags, and the desired date of publication.
