Click Install Now, a menu will appear where you are to fill in the necessary data, please note that whatever you fill in is what your site will look like but can be changed in the dashboard settings except the directory in which you stored Wordpress.
if you want Wordpress to be your main Site, Under the "in Directory" option, it is default set as "WP" delete it.

then after Filling up the form, Choose a theme at the bottom last.
i prefer you leave that aside because it can be changed later from your dashboard to avoid certain inconveniences.
click install and wordpress will be installed on your preferred site and after successful installation, it will provide you with two links
  1. http://yoursite.com ---- this leads to your new wordpress site
  2. http://yoursite.com/wp-admin ----- this leads to your dashboard.
after successful login into your dashboard with the username and password you provided during installation, i advice you change your login Link with a plugin called Loginurl.
to avoid hackers and spams and to tighten security install plugin "reCaptcha for Login"

Congrats the Rest is up to you to Manage

  1. Thanks for talking and writing about those challenging WordPress requirements. This is something which can not be understood by all of us easily. However, a website development company agrees and focuses on the functionality of the domain and its technicalities. By your explanation, everything seems easier for creating a website.

  2. on the authority of Video Animation Services WordPress is a free and open source software that is used for building websites. It is a very popular platform with over 60 million websites using it.

    It has many features such as the ability to create and design custom themes, widgets, and plugins. WordPress also offers an extensive library of free themes and plugins that can be used for different purposes.

    The next step in the process is to install WordPress on your hosting provider. The installation process is not complicated but it does require some technical skills on your part if you are not familiar with this type of process.

    WordPress offers two types of hosting: shared hosting and a VPS (Virtual Private Server). Shared hosting provides you with limited storage space, bandwidth, RAM, CPU power, and other resources while VPS gives you more control over the server.
