OK so I bought this 'website' template from some ebay guy and basically he sold me a PHP website "ready to go" BS sorta thing and i guess without rambling further, I need to know how to convert the php file website into a wordpress ready website..

i had to download the files and then upload it to my hosting server with FILEZILLA.....

the interface is crappy with this guy's 'php site creation' i dont wanna deal with it when doing my seo campaign for a website that i named with this template.

how can i convert it into a wordpress site.

    That sounds like a very frustrating problem. Where did you buy the site (ie flippa, warriorforum, etc)? There may be recourse if you bought it through a legit website and the product he gave you is different than the one he promised.

    If you didn't and there is no way to get a refund, then it will probably be more costly for you to learn the coding required to turn one raw php file into a wordpress website. I would hire a coder (who you know to be trustworthy) to do it for you, or if you didn't pay that much for the site, just scrap it.

    Sorry.

      You can probably find somebody on Fiverr that can fix that problem for you for $5. Just search the programing section.

    If it is "crappy" why do you want to keep any part of it? I would just scrap it and install wordpress. You can start with a free theme and easily convert it to a premium paid theme once you start making money.

    personally I use leadpages.net to build out many of my pages. Super simple. It costs a few bucks but it's worth it in my opinion for the speed, quality and ease.
