All hosting plans include Plesk's WordPress Toolkit. With it you can install WordPress in a few minutes, with no technical knowledge.

Before you start

  • Your domain must point to your hosting. See Changing nameservers.
  • Your plan must have a database available (Basic has 1).

Installation steps

  1. Log in to Plesk.
  2. In the menu choose WordPress and click Install.
  3. Select the domain to install on. Leave the path field empty if you want the site at the main address (e.g. example.gr).
  4. Fill in the site title, language (e.g. Greek), admin username, a strong password and your email.
  5. Click Install. The Toolkit creates the database automatically.
  6. When it finishes, click Log in to open the WordPress dashboard.

Useful Toolkit features

  • Updates: update WordPress, themes and plugins from one place.
  • Security: apply the recommended security settings with one click.
  • Clone / Staging: create a copy of your site to test changes safely.

After installation

  1. Enable the free Let's Encrypt SSL so the site opens over https.
  2. Set up backups.
