1.3 [VIDEO] Installing WordPress with your Hosting Account

The above video shows how to do it with Hostgator as an example. If you have chosen our preferred host Hostpapa, then your dashboard is very slightly different.

However, the same steps apply, you simple click the option to install WordPress on the domain you have chosen. It is an autoinstall and takes a few seconds.

See you in the next video!

You can get your domain + hosting account here.

Hi Justice. I am kind of experiencing the same problem. When I try to visit my website, it takes me back to HostGator. Were you able to solve the problem?

4 months ago

I have not been able to solve the problem, an that has discouraged me from continuing since then.

Have you got any solutions? I want to begin again but the problem is yet to be solved.
