WordPress How to Make a Website with WordPress Installing WordPress 1 Click WordPress Install

Can't Visit WordPress Website

I used cPanel to login and install WordPress onto my website. I made sure to make the field blank that Zac tells you to while installing (so the installer doesn't go to a sub folder). I finished installing and got a confirmation email that it successfully installed. I cannot however, visit my website at the moment! I installed it maybe 1 hour ago, but still can't visit it. Will this change in the next 12-24 hours? Is there a waiting period for this? Thanks.

With Wordpress sites, they often take a few hours to become accessible. Check back frequently though, I've had Wordpress sites take over 24 hours and also experienced one or two hour delays. Be patient, it's working

Thanks for your quick reply. I'll sit on it then, and hopefully it's closer to 2 hours than 24!
