cPanel Web Hosting Explanation

For your info, it's useful to know that the majority of the cPanel Web Hosting offers on the present-day website hosting market are furnished by a very inconsiderable marketing niche (when it comes to yearly money flow) known as reseller hosting. Reseller hosting is a kind of a small-size business niche, which generates a big amount of different web hosting brand names, yet providing exactly the same thing: chiefly cPanel web hosting solutions. This is bad news for everybody. Why? Because at least 98% of the web hosting offerings on the entire web hosting marketplace offer exactly the same thing: cPanel. There's no difference at all. Even the cPanel Web Hosting price tags are similar. Quite identical. Leaving for those who need a top web hosting service almost no other website hosting platform/Control Panel option. Thus, there is simply a single fact: out of more than two hundred thousand website hosting brands in the world, the non-cPanel based ones are less than 2 percent! Less than 2 percent, mark that one...

200k "Web Hosting providers", all cPanel-based, yet differently branded

The Web Hosting "variety" and the website hosting "offers" Google presents to all of us boil down to merely one and the very same thing: cPanel. Under 100's of 1000's of different web hosting trademarked names. Assume you are only a normal person who's not very well acquainted with (as the majority of us) with the site making procedures and the website hosting platforms, which in fact power the individual domain names and web sites. Are you prepared to make your web hosting selection? Is there any website hosting option you can decide upon? Of course there is, nowadays there are more than two hundred thousand hosting distributors in existence. Officially. Then where is the problem? Here's where: more than 98 percent of these more than two hundred thousand different web hosting brand names around the world will offer you absolutely the same cPanel website hosting Control Panel and platform, dubbed in a different way, with literally the same price tags! WOW! That's how enormous the assortment on the contemporary website hosting marketplace is... Period.

The Web Hosting LOTTERY we are all part of

Simple mathematics demonstrates that to encounter a non-cPanel based web hosting vendor is a huge strike of luck. There is a less than one in 50 chance that a phenomenon like that will take place! Less than one in 50...

The positive and negative sides of the cPanel-based Web Hosting solution

Let's not be fierce with cPanel. After all, in the years 2001-2004 cPanel was modern and perhaps met all web hosting industry requirements. In short, cPanel can do the trick if you have just one single domain to host. But, if you have more domains...

Weak Side Number One: A laughable domain folder configuration

If you have two or more domain names, however, be ultra attentive not to erase entirely the add-on ones (that's how cPanel will call each next hosted domain name, which is not the default one: an add-on domain name). The files of the add-on domains are quite simple to delete on the server, since they all are set up into the root folder of the default domain, which is the very well known public_html folder. Each add-on domain is a folder located inside the folder of the default domain name. Like a sub-folder. Next time attempt not to delete the files of the add-on domains, please. Check for yourself how excellent cPanel's domain folder structure is:

Are you getting confused? We categorically are!

Disadvantage Number 2: The very same e-mail folder arrangement

The e-mail folder arrangement on the server is exactly the same as that of the domains... Making the same mistake twice?!? The admin boys strongly increase their belief in God when managing the email folders on the e-mail server, praying not to mess things up too seriously.

Weak Side Number Three: An utter deficiency of domain manipulation menus

Do we have to refer to the thorough shortage of a contemporary domain name manipulation menu - a location where you can: register/migrate/renew/park or manage domain names, change domain names' Whois info, secure the Whois info, edit/set up nameservers (DNS) and Domain Name System records? cPanel does not offer such a "contemporary" menu at all. That's a considerable predicament. An inexcusable one, we would like to point out...

Negative Sign Number 4: Multiple user login places (minimum two, maximum 3)

What about the necessity for an additional login to access the billing transaction, domain name and tech support management user interface? That's aside from the cPanel login credentials you've been already given by the cPanel-based Web Hosting vendor. Now and then, on the basis of the billing transaction tool (principally developed for cPanel exclusively) the cPanel Web Hosting supplier is using, the ardent users can wind up with two additional login locations (1: the billing/domain name management GUI; 2: the ticket support user interface), winding up with an aggregate of 3 user login locations (counting cPanel).

Predicament Number 5: 120+ website hosting Control Panel sections to get acquainted with... briskly

cPanel presents for your consideration more than 120 sections inside the web hosting Control Panel. It's a remarkable idea to pick up each of them. And you'd better grasp them promptly... That's inordinately insolent on cPanel's side.

With all due appreciation, we have a rhetorical question for all cPanel-based Web Hosting vendors:

As far as we know, it's not the year 2001, is it? Note that one as well...
