I have a question - I am currently on the step where I have to upload the wordpress files to the root directory (where I want them) but on my web host's file manager page I don't have the option of uploading more than 1 file at a time. I just uploaded all the files (one by one..) in the first map and realized there has got to be like a million other ones in the other folders in the wordpress map. I take that all files are necessary but is this the only solution? Do I have to upload these files from my computer one by one or the last step won't do it..? A thanks in advance Hello!

I'm not so technical, but this was easy to follow. One suggestion (and I saw in another comment that I wasn't the only one who had this issue): maybe mention in the body of the tutorial that the root directory might not be just /, but /public_html, etc. I uploaded all the files to /, and only when I spoke to Hostgator support (after the install URL 404ed) did they tell me that it needed to be uploaded to /public_html. Thanks again! Aviva Thanks so much for this tutorial. I’m not so technical, but this was easy to follow.

Depending on your web host, the root directory might be public_html or perhaps httpdocs. If still not sure, ask your hosting provider. Maybe watch the video as that should make it more clear.
