How to Switch From Hostinger Website Builder to WordPress or Another CMS

Learn how to select another platform for building your website

Updated over 5 months ago

If you've started creating your website with Hostinger Website Builder and would like to use WordPress (or another CMS) instead, you need to delete the builder-based website and set up a new website from scratch using another CMS.

NOTES

  • A deleted website cannot be restored; all its content is lost permanently

  • If you have an email service set up for your domain, make sure to create a backup of your emails, as deleting the website will also delete emails

Navigate to the Websites section of hPanel and delete the website that you've created:

Then, add a new website to your hosting plan and choose WordPress (or another CMS) as your preferred website-building platform. If you select WordPress, to finish the setup, create a WordPress account, choose the preferred plugins and website template, and insert the domain name that you've previously released by deleting the website built with Hostinger Website Builder.
