1: Follow the setup wizard

How do you want to start building your WordPress website? There are two ways to set up your new Managed Hosting for WordPress plan. Each option has a wizard that will guide you through the setup process.

• Start building a new site: Tell us whether you’re building your site for yourself or managing it for someone else, then choose how you’d like to create it. You can chat with Airo to easily create a WordPress site in minutes using Airo Site Designer or start a WordPress site from scratch using your theme, builder, or editor.Choose your own theme and builder – Start with this option to use the default WordPress experience as you know it. Already have a favorite theme? Choose your own theme and builder.
• Move an existing site: Already have a site? We’ll guide you through the steps of moving over your whole site — Migrate my WordPress site automatically.

Get started with the wizard by adding a site!

2: Add a domain name

When you set up your Managed Hosting for WordPress plan, we attach a temporary domain so you can get started building your site immediately! You can change the domain when you’re ready for your site to go live.

3: Activate a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate

An SSL certificate provides security and assures visitors your site is legitimate. Your Managed Hosting for WordPress plan comes with an integrated SSL certificate that authenticates your website’s identity and encrypts the connection between a browser and the server.
