If you are new to Wordpress then you might want to try this amazing publishing platform. Wordpress is probably one of the few publishing platforms available that allow the experience of easy installation. WordPress is open source software that can be freely downloadable, directly from their website (http://www.wordpress.org). Here is a brief guide on the process needed to install this amazing platform.

If you are a beginner at using the computer then it could be a bit of a tough ride to get Wordpress to install. This easy guide will help you get through installation in a step by step manner:

Database preparation

WordPress is a database driven system based on MySql. Every WordPress installation takes up one MySql database. The first thing you will need to do is to append a database and a user to it so that Wordpress can function properly. If you happen to use a web hosting account then you can get access to cPanel which is an interface that allows you to control vital aspects of your site. According to which host you have you will need to click the link that says mySQL database or the respective icon. Then go on to add a database and a user. Finally, ensure you add on the new user to your database and you also need to provide complete rights and permissions to this user. The user must be able to remove, add records and perform various other functions easily on the database. The reason you provide full permission to the user is because Wordpress will store all of the blogging posts and other information on the database. Hence complete permission is needed to link to the database.

How to edit config file?

To help Wordpress figure out which database it can link to it is necessary to edit a particular file that arrives with Wordpress. The file is called wp-config-sample.php. You basically need to rename this file to the following name: wp-config.php. A couple of lines will also need to be modified here and there. You will need to change the database name, user name and password. You usually do not need to change the value of the ‘localhost’ variable mentioned in the file.

Upload Wordpress

Next you will need to upload Wordpress. You can upload your files either into your root directory or in some sub-directory. If you place your files on a root directory it will be the very first thing your blog visitors see when they visit your blog or site. If you are placing files in a sub-directory you could call the directory ‘blog’ for easy differentiation. You can use browsers like IE or WS_FTP LE. You will need to key in the details and then link. All you need to do is to drag drop the files and then upload to your hosting account. Depending on whether you uploaded to root directory or sub-directory you need to type in the following URL into the browser: www.domainname.com/wp-admin/install.php where domainname specifies the name of the directory or folder. This brings you to the installation process. Firstly, you need to specify the blog title you wish for and then your email address. Click ‘submit’ to reach the last process that lists the temporary password. Using this you can log into your blog from Wordpress and then later change the password.
