Download & Upload Method<br />

Note: If you’re using premium plugins from a third party<br />

source, they will usually come as a .zip file. You’ll need to use<br />

the download & upload method to install the plugin zip file<br />

on your site.<br />

1. To install a plugin on your WordPress site, locate<br />

the Plugins menu after logging in to your site’s<br />

WordPress dashboard. Expand this menu.<br />

2. To upload a new plugin, click the Add New link.<br />

3. Click the Upload Plugin button, locate your plugin zip<br />

file and then click Install Now. Then, click Activate.<br />

The first plugin we recommend uploading is<br />

BackupBuddy, a premium plugin developed by our<br />

team at iThemes. BackupBuddy backs up your<br />

entire WordPress site’s installation, so you’ll always<br />

have a backup plan if your site crashes, is hacked or<br />

if you mess something up and need to go back in<br />

time to an earlier version of the site.<br />
