Install WordPress using Marketplace
We provide a program which makes it very easy to install WordPress to your hosting account. If you want your website to have a WordPress blog, you can use Marketplace to install WordPress to the root of your site or to a subdirectory.
Installing WordPress with Marketplace
Legacy- Log in to your HostMonster cPanel account.
- Find the Website section and select Install WordPress.
- Click the Install button.
- Choose the domain name to install it to. In the directory field next to the domain, you can enter a subfolder such as 'blog' or leave it blank if you want the site's main page to be the blog.
- If necessary, you can edit the email address, username and password for the new WordPress installation. Click "advanced options" and you can change those settings.
- Read through the license and service agreements and check the boxes.
- Select the Install Now button.
- Log in to your HostMonster account.
- Click on the Marketplace tab from the side navigation menu to the left.
- Choose Add Website from the drop-down menu.
- You will be prompted to create a new WordPress site; enter a Site Name and Tagline, then click the Next button.
- Choose the domain you would like WordPress installed to from the Domain drop-down. If you would like your WordPress installation to exist in a subdirectory (ie., example.com/blog), enter your preferred folder in the Directory field.
- Toggle suggested plugins on/off, then click the Next button.
If you would like to get started but don't have an account you can sign for one at HostMonster.com.
