Before downloading the external files go to your server host’s backend and check if there is a way to automatic install a WordPress. I use IXWebHosting and they offer a service call EasyApps that can install over 30 CMS/Galleries/ShoppingCarts including WordPress. If something like that exists, use it, it’ll save you some time. In the event that you have GoDaddy I did a little research and found this for you from them: Installing WordPress on Your Hosting Account. If it’s worked check your version (it’ll be some where on your dashboard) if it’s less then 2.7 you need to download a plug-in called “WordPress Automatic Upgrade”. I’ll get you the link and how to set up plug-ins later in Full guide to WordPress External Blogs – Configuration (Coming Soon), by the way for you automated people, your done with the content of this post so feel free to jump ahead to WordPress External Blogs – Configuration (Coming Soon).
