Where, when and how to insert/create the administrator account for a website?

Here are a few ways I encountered in other websites/webapplication.

Installation wizard:
You see this a lot in blog software or forums. When you install the application it will ask you to create an administrator user. Private webapplication will most likely not have this.

Installation file:
A file you run to install your application. This file will create the administrator account for you.

Configuration files:
A configuration file that holds the credentials for the administrator account.

Manually insert it into a database:
Manually insert the administrator info into the database.
