If you get hosting from the best hosting provider and install WordPress on your domain then you can easily log in to your admin area. You just need to add a login or wp-login or admin in front of your domain name. For example:

But you have to change your domain name with example.com. (Don’t Forget)
After entering the WordPress Login URL you will see the following WordPress Login page in front of you.
For some reason, if you are unable to see this login page then you can add wp-login.php in front of your domain.
Example: www.example.com/wp-login.php
After entering your username and password (which is provided when you install WordPress) you will be redirected to your own website’s admin panel or WordPress Dashboard which looks like below.
Login to Subdirectory of WordPress
If you install WordPress in a subdirectory of your domain like example.com/wordpress then you have to log in like this
www.example.com/wordpress/login
