# How to create a WordPress site (live site)

To create a WordPress site with Copilhost, ensure you have an active **Cloud hosting plan** and a **domain name** ready to be linked to your new site.

Follow these steps to launch your site:

#### Initialize Creation

Go to the **"Sites"** menu, click the **"New"** button, and select **"Create site"**.

#### Step 2: Site Configuration

A pop-up will appear. Please enter the following information:
* **Site Name:** The internal name for your project.
* **Cloud:** Select the Cloud where you want to host your site (if you manage multiple Clouds).
* **Domain Name:** Select the correct domain from your list.
* **Login Credentials:** Set your WordPress admin **Username** and **Password**.

> **💡 Using a Template:** If you have saved templates, you can check the **"Create from template"** box to deploy a pre-configured site. Feel free to check our [Template Documentation](https://copilhost.crisp.help/en/article/how-to-create-a-template-1dy30r3/) for more details.
