Launching Your Site in Seconds

Building a website shouldn’t require complex manual installations. The FREAKHOSTING Web Control Panel features a powerful One-Click App Installer that handles everything from file deployment to database creation automatically. While WordPress is the most popular choice, you can use this tool for various other CMS and script platforms.

Installing WordPress

Follow these steps to deploy a fresh WordPress installation on your domain.
1

Navigate to Apps

Log in to the Web Panel and click on the Apps tab for your website.
2

Select WordPress

Click the Install App button. Identify WordPress from the list of available applications and click its icon.
3

Configure Installation Details

Fill in the deployment settings:
  • Domain: Choose the domain or subdomain where you want WordPress installed.
  • Path: Leave this blank to install on the root domain (e.g., test.com). Enter a folder name (e.g., /blog) to install it in a subfolder.
  • Version: We always recommend selecting the latest stable version.
4

Admin Information

Provide the details for your WordPress administrator account:
  • Admin Username: Avoid generic names like ‘admin’ for better security.
  • Admin Email: Used for password resets and site notifications.
  • Admin Password: Use the built-in Generator to create a strong, 12-character password.
5

Finalize

Click Install. The system will now download the files, create the database, and configure the site. You will receive a confirmation message once complete.

Managing Your Installation

Once installed, you can manage your WordPress site directly through the Apps tab.
  • Login to Admin: Click the administrative link provided to jump directly to your yourdomain.com/wp-admin login page.
  • Updates: The panel will notify you when new WordPress core, plugin, or theme updates are available.
  • Deletion: If you wish to start over, you can uninstall the application with a single click, which safely removes the associated files and database.

Installation Tips

Security is paramount. Our built-in generator ensures your admin password contains a healthy mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special symbols. Always save these credentials in a secure password manager.
If you already have a website on your main domain and want to add a blog, ensure you specify a path (like /blog). If you install on a path that already contains files, they may be overwritten!
