Provide credentials: Admin Username, Admin Password & Admin Email to login to WordPress Dashboard with Admin Access. Choose the Language of your wish, by default it is English.

Limit Login Attempt (Check) will install a plugin to keep your website safe from outer attacks. When someone is trying to make unnecessary Login attempts (more than 3 password failures), it will block the access of the particular IP.

Classic  Editor (Check) will install a plugin to keep the Website Editor setting as Old WordPress Editor. I, personally, don’t like Guttenberg Editor, so I still use old Editor for Page/Post editing.

Choose any default theme and hit ‘Install’. This is the last step of WordPress installation. Now it takes 2-3 minutes to load script to the server & then your website is ready to go on WordPress. Isn’t it simple?
