SimpleScripts is a one-click installer that enables you to load the self-hosted WordPress.org blogging application to your third-party blog host account quickly and easily. Many web hosts provide a control panel (referred to as a c-panel) where you can access SimpleScripts and install WordPress within seconds. If your host offers SimpleScripts installation for WordPress, just follow the steps below to install WordPress in a snap. You can also follow the link to the SimpleScripts website for more information.
1. Open SimpleScripts in your hosting account.
If there is a SimpleScripts icon in your blog host account c-panel, just double click on it to open SimpleScripts one-click installer.
2. Click the WordPress link.
Find WordPress in the list of available applications available for installation through SimpleScripts, and click on it to open the main WordPress Installation page.
3. Click the Install button.
When you click the Install button, the installation process begins and the Installation Setup Page opens.
4. Select the version of WordPress you want to install.
Step 1: Installation Preferences provides a drop-down menu from which you can select the version of WordPress you want to install to your hosting account. Most likely, this will be the most current and stable version with the highest number.
5. Enter the domain where you want WordPress installed.
What is the domain of the site you plan to use this installation of WordPress on? That's the URL you enter in this text box. Note that you have to purchase the domain and associate it with your hosting account before you install WordPress or it won't show up in the drop-down lists of sites where you can do your installation. In other words, you can only install WordPress on domains that you own, and you first have to tell your host that you own the domain. If you purchased the domain through your blog host, it will probably automatically show up in this drop-down list.
6. Select the Click Here to Display link and enter your blog's title.
Under Step 2: Advanced Options, select the Click Here to Display link in order to expand that section of the Setup page. Then you can enter your new blog's title in the Please Give Your New Site a Name box. Keep in mind, you can leave this blank or change it later if you need to.
