Before you install WordPress you need to install several software packages like apache or Nginx, database, PHP, etc. Unless you are experienced it’s very easy to get lost on the command-line interface. And that’s not all, if any issue pops up ever, you might have to spend countless hours to fix that.

Luckily, we have a great solution to this problem. Easyengine team has made the installation of WordPress super easy. All you need is to just execute few lines of command and all the necessary package needed will get installed.

					wget -qO ee https://rt.cx/ee4 && sudo bash ee
Installing WordPress on Cloud After you have completed the above steps execute the following command to install necessary packages and dependencies on your server. 
				
					ping example.com
