Once you have a domain and hosting, the next step is installing WordPress. The video below walks through creating a MySQL database in cPanel, uploading WordPress, and running the famous “5-minute install”.

The Short Recipe

1. Open cPanel → MySQL Databases.
2. Create a new database (e.g. user_wp01).
3. Create a new user (e.g. user_wpadm) and stash the password.
4. Attach the user to the database with ALL PRIVILEGES.
5. Download the latest WordPress from wordpress.org.
6. Upload the files via FileZilla or cPanel’s File Manager into public_html.
7. Hit your domain in a browser — the installer asks for the database details you just created.
8. Pick a site title, admin username, and password. Done.

Tip: If you use Plesk instead of cPanel, the names change but the flow is identical: Databases > Add Database + FTP upload.
