We need a hosting and domain to create a website. Don’t worry, if you have not web hosting and domain, create your first website on your local computer.

WordPress installation on XAMPP

Follow the steps to create your website: 

WordPress is the most famous CMS in the world, and every type of website can be created by it. Two things are mandatory for creating a professional website or blog:

1. Domain name
2. Web hosting

Don’t worry, if you have not purchased a domain and hosting yet, create your website or blog on your local hos. You can create a full website or blog locally before going to live server. It is better to create a website or blog on the local host, after completing your project you can easily upload (launch)your full site on a live server.

First you need to install a local host software on your PC to make it local server to run web development applications. I recommend  XAMPP, a small utility ,which will allow you to run a local web server on your own machine, using Apache and MySQL. This tutorial is for Windows users, there are other versions of XAMPP are available, if you are using XAMPP is available for the following operating systems..
XAMPP Windows
· XAMPP Mac OS
· XAMPP Linux

 INSTALL XAMPP

First, you need to download XAMPP. Click here to download XAMPP latest version, and then double click the installer file to install on your computer. Its installation is quite easy, as like any other software, you have already installed.

If your system is configured by default, a message appears indicating that the control of the user’s account – UAC – is disabled.

Press OK and confirm the steps for installing the software.

Starting the Apache and MySQL

After installation, launch XAMPP from your desktop shortcut and start Apache and MySQL by pressing “Start” on the control panel.
Now open your browser, and type http://localhost and press enter, you will see a XAMPP home page, and now you can run any web development software, including WordPress on your local machine.

Select English language to go to the admin panel, and now you can install WordPress locally.
