**This article focuses on how to login to the self-hosted version of WordPress and

## 1. WordPress Login Screen

First, you’ll need to go to URL:

“https://yourwebsite.com/wp-admin”

You’ll need to change “yourwebsite.com” for your own website name. For example, “
https://oliveandlake.com/wp-admin”.

You will then see a login form to fill your username and password.
