How Do I Set Up WordPress on Unmanaged VPS Hosting?

Unmanaged VPS hosting is more cost-efficient and brings down the operational costs considerably. You may want to set up the popular WordPress on the self-managed VPS to run your blog or website. Buy your unmanaged VPS server from Go4hosting.

Once the server is activated, get the control panel login credentials. Save the root password. Login and click on Manage. Choose the distro that you are comfortable with. Install the distro.

Connect your server with an SSH client like PuTTY or similar. Complete the host field- Username as in root, the password that you saved earlier, and copy the IP address of the VPS server.

Download the EasyEngine or similar (a Python tool to manage your WordPress website with Nginx).

Install WordPress. Point your domain name to your VPS. You can find the one-click installer for the WordPress installation in your control panel. However, you can also install WordPress manually. It is simple and can be completed in 2 to 3 minutes.

Save the WordPress login. You can now login to your website or blog with the login credentials.

In case, you do not wish to manage the technical aspects of your server, you can always rely on Go4hosting and buy their services.
