How to Add WordPress to InfinityFree
Welcome to Ben’s Experience! In this guide, I will show you how to add WordPress to InfinityFree. InfinityFree is a great free hosting platform that allows you to easily host your WordPress site. Follow these steps to get started.
Step 1: Log into Your InfinityFree Account
Head over to infinityfree.net and log in with your email address and password. Click “Sign In” to access your account.
Step 2: Select Your Hosting Account
Once logged in, click on the web hosting account where you want to add WordPress. This will take you to your hosting dashboard.
Step 3: Access the Softaculous Installer
In your hosting dashboard, look for the “Softaculous Installer” button. It’s a big button, usually easy to find. Click on it to open the installer.
Step 4: Install WordPress
Under the Softaculous installer, find WordPress and click on the “Install” button. Here are the steps you need to follow:
- Choose the Protocol: Select between HTTP or HTTPS. I recommend using HTTPS for better security.
- Select Your Domain: Choose your domain from the dropdown list.
- Choose WordPress Version: Go with the latest version of WordPress for the best security features.
- Site Settings: Enter your website name and a brief description.
- Admin Account: Create your admin username (I chose “Ben”) and a strong password. Also, fill in your email address.
- Select Language: Choose your site language. I selected English.
- Advanced Options: You can rename your database here. Using your website’s name can make managing your database easier.
Step 5: Complete the Installation
Click the “Install” button and wait for the process to complete. It usually takes a few moments.
Step 6: Visit Your New WordPress Site
Once the installation is complete, visit your new WordPress site. If the admin link provided doesn’t work, simply add /wp-admin
to your domain URL to access the WordPress admin area.
