WordPress

Install XAMPP, start Apache and MySQL. Download WordPress and extract it into:Windows: C:\xampp\htdocs\your-site-folder\Create a database in http://localhost/phpmyadmin. Then open http://localhost/your-site-folder to run the installer. Use DB name you created, username usually root, password usually blank (unless you set one).

Yes. WordPress software is free to download and use. You can install it on your computer using a local server (XAMPP/WAMP/MAMP) or a tool like LocalWP. The only costs come when you want a live website: domain name and hosting (and optional premium themes/plugins).

Usually yes—each domain needs its own WordPress installation if you want separate websites. However, you can run WordPress Multisite to manage multiple sites from one WordPress install, or use subdomains/subfolders depending on your plan. If each domain is a separate project, separate installs are simpler to manage.

Install a local server tool like XAMPP/WAMP/MAMP or use LocalWP (simplest). Start Apache + MySQL, create a database, copy WordPress files into the local web folder, then open localhost/your-folder in a browser. Enter database name, username, and password, then complete the WordPress setup and log in.

Go to WordPress.org and download the WordPress ZIP file. Extract it on your computer. If you want it to “run” locally, you also need a local server (XAMPP, WAMP, MAMP, or LocalWP). Then place the WordPress files in the server web folder, create a database, and run the installer in your browser.

For most users, the best way is managed WordPress hosting or the host’s installer because it’s fast, secure, and updated. If you want full control, install manually so you control folders, database names, and security settings. Either way, use SSL, strong admin credentials, updated PHP, and keep WordPress, themes, and plugins updated.

The easiest way is your hosting provider’s one-click installer. It creates the database, uploads files, and configures WordPress automatically. You just choose the domain, set the admin username/password, and click Install. In a few minutes, you can log in to wp-admin and start building your site.

Buy hosting + a domain, then use your host’s one-click WordPress installer (Softaculous, Installatron, or “WordPress Manager”). After it installs, open yourdomain.com/wp-admin, log in, and finish basic setup (site title, permalink, theme, plugins). Manual method: upload WordPress files to your site folder, create a MySQL database, run the installer at your domain, and enter DB details.

WordPress is not a single website or app. It is a content management system used to build websites. WordPress runs on a web server and is accessed through a browser. It also has desktop and mobile apps for content management. In simple terms, WordPress is website software, not just a website or an app.

To uninstall the WordPress app, follow your device steps.On Windows, open Settings → Apps → Installed apps, select WordPress, then click Uninstall.On macOS, open Applications, drag the WordPress app to Trash, then empty Trash.On Android or iOS, long-press the WordPress app icon and tap Uninstall or Remove App.This removes the app only, not your website or content.
