It’s always better to get information straight from the horses mouth, so it’s my belief that it’s far better for the integrity of Blogging Rocket’s advice to link out to fellow bloggers who have actually done the thing they are describing.
1&1 are amongst the top European hosting providers, so it’s very likely that many people will be hosting their blog with 1&1. I used to have a 1&1 account and I have set up WordPress blogs there in the past, but I don’t have a tutorial ready to describe the process.
This is why I am going to recommend that anybody with a 1&1 hosting account should go and read the tutorial written by Anthony Baggett entitled: How to Install Wordpress with 1 and 1 Hosting The post is a good solid read and will help anyonewanting to install WordPress on their system.

I curse the day I got involved with 1and1. In my opinion, avoid it like the plague.

1and1 are fine until something goes wrong. Only then you realise they have a rather inadequate customer service department and technical support… don’t get me started.
