Wordify Console lets you spin up a fully-managed WordPress site in a couple of minutes. This guide walks you through creating your first one.
Before you start
New sites are created inside a Team. If you belong to more than one team, check the team selector at the top of the sidebar before you begin.
1. Open the create form
From the Sites page, click New Site in the top-right. You can also use New Site from the Dashboard.
2. Name your site
Enter a Site Name. This is a friendly label you will see throughout Console, for example "My First Site". You can change it later.
3. Choose a temporary domain
Every new site gets a free temporary URL on wordifysites.com, so you can start building before your real domain is ready. Type a subdomain, or leave it blank for an auto-generated one. Console checks availability as you type.
You can connect your own domain later. See Adding a custom domain.
4. Pick a server location
Choose the data centre closest to your audience: US, UK, Canada, Germany or Australia. This cannot be changed after the site is created, so pick the right region up front.
5. Choose a plan
Wordify has three post-paid production plans, Starter, Business and Pro, so you only pay for what you use. Every plan includes daily backups, a global CDN, a staging site, WAF and malware scanning, free migrations, SSL and 24/7 support.
Not ready to go live? Choose a free Dev Site instead. This is a development and testing environment that is not for production use. You can promote it to a live site at any time. See Promoting a DevSite to a live site.
6. (Optional) Enable CDN
Toggle Enable CDN to serve static assets from BunnyCDN's global edge network. You can also turn this on later from the site's CDN settings.
7. Create the site
Click Create Site. Console provisions everything automatically: DNS, server account, WordPress, hosting tools, CDN, configuration and an SSL certificate.
This usually takes a few minutes. You can leave the page, and provisioning continues in the background.
Your site is ready
When provisioning finishes you land on the site's Overview page: site health, your temporary URL with SSL already active, backups, and quick actions to manage everything.
