How To Install Wordpress Video

I sure hope you like my first video on how to install wordpress.

The process is really pretty simple but if you’re like me, you just need to see it done. In this video I mention you need to be at your cpanel in order to do the install. Once in cpanel go to Fantastico and then click on Wordpress. In the Wordpress window, decide where you want to install. If you install in the main root folder don’t add anything to the directory. If you want to install your blog in a subfolder, make sure you put the name of your subfolder in the directory box…don’t add a backslash.

That’s it to getting your first install of Wordpress. In the next video I will show you how to install a wordpress template.

Please rate my video if you found it helpful and leave a comment. I would like to hear what videos you want made.
