When you order a web host product, WordPress isn't automatically installed, to install it go to the server page. You should see something like the photo below
Then go to the startup tab and scroll down until you see the WordPress option
Press the button to enable it, then go to the settings tab and reinstall the server
After the server is reinstalled, start it and connect to the WordPress server using the address that's connected to your server, open a new browser tab and paste the address, you should be here
Choose your language and then click Continue
To setup a database, go back to the panel and press the database tab and make a new database, enter a name but leave the "CONNECTIONS FROM" option blank and press create database, once created go back to the WordPress setup tab.
Password is located at the eye icon, press it and you will see your database password NOT YOUR PANEL PASSWORD
Database Host is the endpoint address
Leave Table Prefix alone.
It should look like this at the end.
After you press "Submit" Install WordPress, do not close out the tab when its downloading.
Database Name is what you named the database when you made it Username is shown in the database tab under username NOT YOUR PANEL USERNAME
