Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start blogging!

WordPress can be deployed using various methods on a hosting environment. Users have the option to download the current version of WordPress from WordPress.org. From there, they can upload the source code and its dependencies to their hosting environment.

WordPress can also be installed via package management system or deploying a ready-to-use TurnKey WordPress appliance, which does not require any manual setup or configuration.[9]

WordPress can also be installed via the Microsoft Web Platform Installer which installs WordPress on Windows and IIS. The Web PI will automatically detect any missing dependencies such as PHP or MySQL then install and configure them[10] before installing WordPress.

A lot of web hosting firms offer one-click script auto installer program such as Fantastico in their packages. Users can simply install WordPress through such program.

Advanced users have the option to have WordPress downloaded to their server and consistently updated using SVN. This will allow users to remain updated easily.[11]

Free hosting services such as WordPress.com offer users an easy way to deploy a WordPress blog on-line without having to install WordPress on their own web server. A subdomain account (e.g. yourname.wordpress.com) will be created upon the sign up of free hosting service. Many shared web hosting services also offer automated WordPress installation through their control panel.
