8. Choose a “Billing Cycle” (how often we’ll pay).

I’d recommend going for 12 months or more if you can, and not only because we get a great discount compared to monthly billing (which we do). But, we also get a FREE domain name!

9. Enter Email Address.
10. Create a Password and Security PIN for our HostGator account.
11. Fill out our personal billing information (name, email address, etc).
12. Once we’re done, we can scroll down to where it says “Add Additional Services”.

I normally just uncheck these boxes myself (they are completely optional).

13. Delete the current coupon code.
14. Enter the coupon code: WORDPRESS1HOST (and click Validate).
15. Scroll down and check the box to agree to the Terms of Service.
16. Click “Check out Now!”.
17. Pay for our order.

— Log into HostGator Control Panel (cPanel)

After successful payment, we will be brought to a page thanking us for our order.

1. Close out of HostGator.
2. Open our email inbox (the one we used when signing up).
3. Click into the email titled “Your Account Info”
4. Click the link beside where it says “Your Control Panel”.

This will open up the Control Panel (cPanel) in a new tab.

5. Copy and paste Username and Password from the email, into the cPanel login screen.
6. Click “Login” to log into the cPanel.

— Install WordPress (using Softaculous)

2. Click on “WordPress Manager”.
3. Click “Install”.
4. Scroll down and enter Username, Password, and Email Address.

Everything else on this page is optional.

5. Scroll down to the bottom and click “Install”.

At this point, Hostgator will start installing WordPress for us.
(this usually takes less than a minute).

Once it’s finished, we can click the link beside “Administrative URL”.

Which will open up the WordPress Dashboard.

And this is where we can add any content, or make any changes to our new WordPress site.
Which is now LIVE online!
