How to Resell WordPress Sites With GoHighLevel
If you use tools like ClickUp to manage projects, you can also streamline web design fulfillment and client billing by reselling hosted WordPress sites directly inside GoHighLevel. This guide walks you step by step through enabling the WordPress add-on, creating sites, and managing access so you can package websites as a recurring service.
Why Offer WordPress Through GoHighLevel
Reselling hosted sites from your GoHighLevel account lets you control both the marketing system and the website from one place. Instead of using separate hosting panels, domains, and billing tools, you can keep everything tied to each sub-account.
Key advantages include:
- Sell websites as a recurring, managed service.
- Bundle funnels, automations, and sites together.
- Launch staging sites quickly during sales or onboarding.
- Manage client access without exposing your main hosting or agency credentials.
GoHighLevel WordPress Feature Overview
Inside a location, the platform adds a dedicated WordPress tab. From there you can create and manage complete sites without leaving your GoHighLevel dashboard.
At a high level, you can:
- Spin up standard or staging WordPress installs.
- Assign domains or use system subdomains.
- Log in to the WordPress admin directly from the panel.
- Invite clients to access their own WordPress dashboard.
This integration means your GoHighLevel locations can act as full website containers as well as CRM and automation hubs.
Prerequisites for Using GoHighLevel WordPress
Before you can resell WordPress sites, make sure the following are in place:
- An active agency account with WordPress add-on access.
- At least one location (sub-account) created for your client.
- Permission to manage websites on that client’s behalf.
- Billing or pricing structure for your website plans.
You do not need separate cPanel hosting or another WordPress host; the GoHighLevel integration provisions the environment for you.
Step-by-Step: Enable WordPress in a GoHighLevel Location
Follow these steps inside each location where you want to host a site.
Step 1: Open the GoHighLevel WordPress Tab
- Login to your agency dashboard.
- Open the specific location (sub-account) for your client.
- In the left-hand navigation, click the WordPress tab.
If this is your first time using the feature in that location, you will see options to create a new site.
Step 2: Choose a Site Type
Within the WordPress section in GoHighLevel, you can typically choose between:
- New production site – for live websites clients will use publicly.
- Staging site – for development, testing, or redesign work before going live.
Select the option that matches your client’s current stage. Many agencies start with a staging site during design and then promote or rebuild the final site later.
Step 3: Configure Basic Site Settings
Next, configure the essential technical details for the WordPress installation in GoHighLevel.
- Set the site name – usually the client’s business name.
- Select temporary access URL – often a system subdomain is created automatically.
- Confirm region or server settings if available in your interface.
You can update domains and other advanced options later, so focus on getting the base site online first.
Step 4: Create the WordPress Install
After confirming the configuration, click the button to create or install WordPress. The GoHighLevel system will provision the site in the background.
Once the process finishes, you will see controls such as:
- Login to WordPress – one-click access to the admin dashboard.
- View website – to open the public-facing homepage.
- Environment status – to confirm that the site is active.
Managing Sites in the GoHighLevel WordPress Panel
After the site is created, you manage it from the same WordPress tab inside GoHighLevel. This keeps day-to-day work simple for your team.
Accessing the WordPress Dashboard
From the WordPress tab:
- Locate the installed site for the current location.
- Click the Login or Open WordPress button.
The system logs you directly into the WordPress admin without separate usernames or passwords. This is useful when your agency builds or maintains content and themes.
Assigning Domains to a GoHighLevel WordPress Site
You can connect a custom domain so the WordPress site appears on the client’s branded URL.
- Go to the WordPress settings area for the site.
- Locate the Domain or URL settings.
- Follow the provided instructions to point DNS records from the registrar to the GoHighLevel environment.
DNS changes may take time to propagate, so plan launches with a buffer to avoid downtime.
Granting Client Access to WordPress
When you are ready for the client to log in to their site, use the access tools provided in the WordPress section inside GoHighLevel.
- Create or invite a user account inside WordPress.
- Share a login link or credentials as documented on the platform.
- Decide whether clients get admin rights or editor-only roles, depending on your service model.
This lets clients update content while you retain control over hosting and core configuration.
Packaging and Reselling GoHighLevel WordPress Sites
To turn this feature into revenue, define clear website packages around your GoHighLevel setup.
Example WordPress Resell Packages
- Basic – One-page or small brochure site, hosting included, monthly maintenance.
- Standard – Multi-page site, blog, on-page SEO, and support.
- Premium – Advanced design, integrations with funnels and automations inside GoHighLevel, and priority support.
You can then use pipelines, funnels, and automations in the same platform to sell, onboard, and bill for these website plans.
Best Practices for Managing Multiple GoHighLevel Sites
- Create one location per client so each WordPress install stays isolated.
- Document your preferred themes and plugins so every site follows a standard stack.
- Schedule recurring check-ins to update plugins, themes, and backups.
- Log internal notes in your project management tool and relate them to each GoHighLevel location.
