To get started, figure out whether your Magento installation uses the root or pub directory and then install WordPress there in a directory named wp. You can do this manually via FTP or by running the following command in the Magento root or pub directory.
curl -sS https://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz | tar xzf - && mv -f wordpress wpNext go to your Magento URL + /wp (eg. https://www.example.com/wp) and follow the steps to install WordPress. You can use a separate database for WordPress or the Magento database, however it is recommended that you install WordPress in it's own database.
WordPress URLs
WordPress Admin > Settings > General:
The WordPress Address field should be the WordPress installation URL and the Site Address URL should be the integrated URL. If you want your blog to be available from /blog then enter your Magento store URL + /blog
