How to install WordPress on a subdomain
In this tutorial, I will teach you how to install WordPress via Fantastico on a subdomain created from cPanel.
Phase 1 - Creating a subdomain
1) Login to your cpanel (domain.com/cpanel)
2) Enter user and password
3) Locate your subdomain icon, should be a dark folder (click it)
icon subdomain
4) Enter in the subdomain youd like to use..in my case.. --"marketing.webmasterpunk.com"
subdomain
fantastico
4) You should be presented with a list of menu items on the left, look for WordPress.
5) After clicking it, you will be presented with a few options.
6) Select New Installation (its in bold, you cant miss it!)
7) Now you should see a bunch of fields and dropdowns. Follow my screenshot below.
Note: My screenshot will install WordPress on - Marketing.webmasterpunk.com (which is the root level)install wordpress
Notice how I left the install directory blank? Thats because I want -"marketing.webmasterpunk.com" to be the directory of the isntallation, if you enter in /blog or /news - it will install the blog on a directory under your subdomain such as "marketing.webmasterpunk.com/games/" which I dont really advise people to do.
9) Enter in your login information, password, admin nickname, email, site me, and a description of what your blog will be about.
10) Click install WordPress
11) This wil automatically install and update WordPress into your subdomain.
12) Click Finish installation and you are done.
This is my subdomain blog. : http://marketing.webmasterpunk.com/
To access your subdomain: http://subdomain.domain.com
To access your wordpress admin panel: http://subdomain.domain.com/wp-admin
Note: Do NOT enter http://www (WWW) will not work in most cases.
Enjoy!
It is also easy to backup and transfer all your websites from one server to another server if you have cPanel installed-*:
