Can you recommend me any hosting companies that provide their clients with free software installation services? For example, do you know any hosting company that will install Wordpress or phpBB or XenForo (or any such script that takes a few minutes to install) for free when you purchase a hosting plan from that company?

Please, don't reply things like, "you can do that yourself from cPanel, it's easy". I know that it may be easy for many of you, but some people are just beginners and don't know how to create databases and stuff like that. Thank you. :)

I know that with CPanel there's a one-click install feature? But it depends on the host. Give me a minute I'll see what it's called with my host

Edit: I just remembered the name of the one-click install add-on some hosts have it, some don't it's called Softaculous, I don't have it with my host. I have something called QuickInstall (I'm with HostGator).

There's no such thing as a one click install feature, even with Softaculous. You still have to create a database, upload the software files from your PC, go through several installation steps until the software is installed. That definitely involves more than one click.

You can find many options for this requirement. Some hosts offer fully automated software installs for many different scripts/softwares.

Almost web hosting providers will support you to install this if you request them.
Try to contact some on web hosting marketplace https://forumweb.hosting/marketplace/ on this forum and hope you will find some good ones.

You can find out more web hosting providers are providing this. If no, you can request them to have this feature, it is not too hard to have it though.
