One but first off we’re just going to start on how to actually install WordPress so you log into your dream host account at panel dreamhost.com and you come in and click on the 1-click installs when you go and when you click on that the page will load up and you’ll
See WordPress here in the top right-hand corner so I’m going to click on that and then we’re going to do a custom installation simple installation will work but it doesn’t give you access to a lot of the stuff we’re going to be using so we’re gonna do a custom installation
Now we’re gonna choose a domain to put it on I’m going to put mine at demo one how a to webmaster show.com and we’re just gonna leave it to automatically create database and click it install it for me now so it just takes a second and I’ll get a little notification there
That it’s going to be set up within 10 minutes so in 10 minutes time you’ll have a fresh installation of WordPress at your website so we’re gonna wait 10 minutes and when I get back we’ll set it up ok so when you go to your domain name and after you’ve done
