How to Install wordpress using cpanel
Wordpress is one of the best CMS which according to a survey is used by 0.8% websites on all the world wide web and this is the reason everyone wants to install wordpress on their website. Let me give you guys a very quick tutorial on how to install wordpress in 30 seconds. Here is another wordpress installation guide, if you find this tutorial confusing!
Get a web hosting account with a company which offers you with Cpanel and Fantastico De Luxe.
Login to your Cpanel account and follow the following procedure :
Click on the Fantastico De Luxe Option in your hosting account :

Click on the Wordpress option on the left menu of the Fantastico Home Navigation :

Click on New Installation option under the wordpress options page which appears on the right side :

Fill all the options in the step 2 page and complete them, after which you need to click on the “Install Wordpress” option.

Thats it, once you do this you will be asked to confirm and you are done, with a 30 seconds wordpress installation.
Use Fantastico to automatically install any of the scripts listed on the left. Installing any script will use one of your available MySQL databases. Removing any script will free up one of your used MySQL databases.

In case of hosting WP blog through cPanel, what precautions are needed (do some files need to be manually shifted/moved for privacy) ?
The bigger problem than installing Wordpress is finding a reliable and free cPanel hosting.
Any suggestion on the free but reliable hosting offering cPanel hosting will be very welcome.
