Bursting with Excitement: Setting up WordPress in cPanel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p class=\"intro\">WordPress is a content management system that is widely used around the world, providing users with ease of website creation and management. Now, if you are wondering how to set up WordPress on your website, don&#8217;t fret! There are a few steps that you need to take and we are here to guide you through the labyrinth of confusion that may arise. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_cPanel\"><\/span>What is cPanel?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before delving into the intricacies of WordPress, let&#8217;s take a look at the enigmatic cPanel. cPanel is a web hosting control panel that allows users to manage their websites, databases, and email accounts, all in one place! It is used by most web hosting companies and is a popular choice among website owners.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Mystical_Steps_of_Setting_Up_WordPress_in_cPanel\"><\/span>The Mystical Steps of Setting Up WordPress in cPanel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Choose_a_Web_Hosting_Provider\"><\/span>Step 1: Choose a Web Hosting Provider<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In order to set up WordPress in cPanel, you need to first choose a web hosting provider. Beware, there are many options to choose from, so choose wisely. While there are many good options available, we recommend using Bluehost.

Bluehost offers several hosting plans to choose from, depending on your needs. You can choose between shared hosting, VPS hosting, dedicated hosting, and WordPress hosting. Make sure you choose the right one!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Login_to_cPanel\"><\/span>Step 3: Login to cPanel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>After purchasing your hosting plan, you will need to log in to cPanel. To access cPanel, simply go to your web hosting provider&#8217;s website and log in to your account. Once you have logged in, you will see a magical link to cPanel in front of your eyes!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Create_a_Database\"><\/span>Step 4: Create a Database<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Now, the fun begins! The next step in setting up WordPress in cPanel is to create a database. To create a database, you will need to go to the MySQL Databases section in cPanel. Here, you will need to create a new database by entering a name for the database. Be creative with the name, but not too creative!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Create_a_Database_User\"><\/span>Step 5: Create a Database User<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Once you have created your database, you will need to create a database user. To do this, simply go to the MySQL Users section in cPanel. Here, you will need to create a new user by entering a username and password. However, don&#8217;t get too carried away with your username and password selection.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_6_Assign_User_to_Database\"><\/span>Step 6: Assign User to Database<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>After creating a database and user, assign the user to the database. Still, with me? Good! Go to the Add User to Database section in cPanel. Here, you will need to select the user and database you created and click the Add button. It&#8217;s like putting the final piece of a puzzle in place!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_7_Install_WordPress\"><\/span>Step 7: Install WordPress<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Prepare for the final showdown! The last step in setting up WordPress in cPanel is to install WordPress. To do this, you will need to go to the Softaculous Apps Installer section in cPanel. Here, you will need to select WordPress from the list of apps and click Install. This is when the spark ignites and magic happens!<\/p>\n<p>You will then need to enter some basic information, such as your website name and administrator username and password. Once you have entered this information, click the Install button.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_End_of_the_Mystical_Walkthrough\"><\/span>The End of the Mystical Walkthrough<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Congratulations!
