The easiest and most user friendly way to install Wordpress, is without a doubt with the use of an installation script.
This tutorial will help you get your Wordpress site set up using a software inside of your webhosts Cpanel called Fantastico.
To get started Log into your web hosting accounts Cpanel.
Once logged in scroll down the page until you see the Fantastico icon, this is usually located in the section titled Software / Services. Click on the Icon to Continue.
In the next screen to open, you will notice on the left sidebar a link with the text Wordpress, the link should be located under the Blogs section. Click on Wordpress To Continue.
On the next page you will see some basic information about Wordpress, the current version, Support forum, Wordpress home page etc… and a link with the text New installation.
Click on the New Installation link to continue.
The next step is to fill in your admin details.
If you are hosting more than one website on your hosting account make sure you choose the correct domain name to install Wordpress on.(Top Arrow)
When deciding on the admin user-name, make sure you choose a name that is anything other than Admin.
For security purposes using Admin as your default username is a very bad idea.
When you are finished inserting your details simply click on the Install Wordpress button at the bottom of the screen.
One more step and your all done, after Clicking on the Finish Installation button you will be asked to send a backup copy of the Admin details you just entered to your email address.
I have deleted the top section of the Admin Details Email page in the image below for Obvious reasons.
Once you have completed all of the above steps you should now have your very own Wordpress website ready to start modifying and adding content to.
If you go to your site you will see the default Wordpress theme, Don’t worry installing a new theme can be as simple as a couple of mouse clicks.
When using an instalation method as this one, you don’t get an option to change the defalt table prefixes for your database, The default database tables are known to be a target for hackers and is a potential security issue, So if this concerns you make sure you change the default Wordpress table prefixes in your database.
