    Good bye machan
    WordPress is the most professional and the most customizable blogging platform. Installing WordPress will definitely help you create a great blog.
    Many bloggers have questions about how to install WordPress on your own hosting server, how to setup etc. Create MySQL database

    Create Mysql Database

    • Dannawa ati kiyala hithanawa

    Downloading the files


    • To install WordPress, go to WordPress.org and download the latest version
    • WordPress 3.0 comes in a .zip file so unzip it
    • Now you have a WordPress folder
    • Find the wp-config-sample.php file and rename it to wp-config.php
    Open wp-config.php in text editor (like NotePad++) and find this part:
    // ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
    /** The name of the database */
    define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘putyourdbnamehere‘);
    /** MySQL database username */
    define(‘DB_USER’, ‘usernamehere‘);
    /** MySQL database password */
    define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘yourpasswordhere‘);
    /** MySQL hostname */
    define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost‘);

    Take your MySQL Database Information you have from GoDaddy and insert them in places where I have marked with bold:

    • Your MySQL Database Name should replace putyourdbnamehere
    • Your MySQL User Name should replace usernamehere
    • Your MySQL password should replaceyourpasswordhere
    • Your MySQL Host Name should replace localhost
    Now find following in your wp-config.php:
    define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’); define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’); define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’); define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here’);
    Visit secret key and copy details you get there and insert them instead of the above.

    • Save wp-config.php
    Login to your web hosting


    • Get a FTP client (like FileZilla)
    • Open FTP client and login to your hosting account using your FTP account information
    • Place all the files from your WordPress folder onto your server
    • In this example I will place all files in root directory (http://www.yourdomain.com). The directory will look something like this when the files are uploaded:

    This is what you will see when you enter the address:

    • Fill in your Blog Title
    • Fill in Your E-mail
    • Make sure your Allow my blog to appear in search engines like Google and Technorati is checked
    • Click on Install WordPress
    • Next screen you see should say Success! and should give you your Username and Password.
    • Click on Log In.
    • Now you will see your blog’s Log In page. Make sure to bookmark that URL.
    • Fill in the Username and Password you have just received
    • Click on Log In.
    Now you will see your Dashboard where all the optimization, customization, post writing, plugin installing, comment moderating takes place.

    This means your blog has been setup and is live online. Check your http://www.domainname.com to see it. You will also get an email titled New Blog which includes your URL and your username / password. That was it, it is very simple to install WordPress. Enjoy your new blog!
