Packaged in with shared hosting accounts with LetsHost, you will have access to the auto-installer script Softaculous. This will allow you to install/manage a large number of scripts and 3rd party pieces of software in just a couple of clicks. The most popular of these is WordPress. For information on how to install WordPress on your hosting account, please see the following steps:

  • Log in to your LetsHost client area and click on Services > My Services
  • You will see your products/services listed out here. Click on Active beside your hosting package
  • On the menu on the left, click on Login to cPanel
  • Once logged in to your cPanel control panel, click on the icon for Softaculous Apps Installer
  • Hover over the WordPress square > click Install
  • A form will appear that you will need to fill in with your website details
  • Remove “wp” from the In Directory field (this will save the installation to www.yourdomain.com and not www.yourdomain.com/wp)
  • Complete the rest of the form and click Install at the end. You can now access the WordPress dashboard from www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin
