This describes creating a database with GoDaddy hosting
First, start by logging into your GoDaddy account:
Click on my hosting account (dropdown under “hosting”)
Click on “manage account” under the correct hosting account domain
Once you’re in the “hosting control center” click on “mysql” from the “databases” dropdown menu
Click the “create database” button
Choose MySQL version 4 or 5, and then enter a description (can be anything), database/user name (must be very unique, or you’ll have to try again), and password (must use at least one capital letter and a number)
(NOTE: you may have to wait 5-10 minutes while the database is setup )
Click the little pencil icon to edit/view database details
Write down or copy the “Host Name:” this will go in the wp-config.php file in place of “localhost”
In your web browser, go to the installation script install.php and fill in the details:
