Before you install WordPress, the server needs LEMP or LAMP installed.
Simple steps to install WordPress on CentOS

Download WordPress

Go to the folder containing the website content

Code:
cd /usr/share/nginx/html/
Code:
wget http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz
unzip

Code:
tar -xzvf latest.tar.gz
Create WordPress MySQL Database and User

I searched and you can see your thread that asked How to create a MySQL database on my VPS on this forum.

Install WordPress

Create file wp-config.php from wp-config-sample.php

Code:
cp ./wordpress/wp-config-sample.php ./wordpress/wp-config.php
Edit the file

Code:
sudo nano ./wordpress/wp-config.php
Fill in the database, user, password in

Code:
// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress');

/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'wordpressuser');

/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');
Save and exit.

Move all files in the folder wordpress out

Code:
mv -f ./wordpress/* ./
Change Ownership for WordPress folder

Code:
sudo chown nginx:nginx * -R
Now you can install WordPress then start the process till it done.

Good luck!
