 * Are you on a local computer or hosting?
 * On local, you will have to move the files out of the WordPress folder so they
   are at the root level.
 * On a hosted server you can point the domain at any folder or same, move files
   to root directory

 * Install WordPress in public html directory, not in public_html/wordpress
