This is a complete tutorial about how to create a new cPanel account using WHM (Web Host Manager). It could be strenuous to handle the webserver for the first time. Typically, the first step towards successful WHM management of the best cPanel hosting UK<\/a> is creating a cPanel account.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Domain Name Will Be Required<\/b><\/h2>\n

One of the primary prerequisites is to have a domain name linked to your hosting. You must use a temporary domain name if you do not have one at this stage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What Would Be The Starting Point?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Logging in to the WHM manager is the first and foremost step.\u00a0 The ‘Account Management Panel’, abbreviated as AMP, can help you reach your WHM. You have to log in as either of two roles. You should be a reseller administrator or root administrator. After successful login, two methods allow you to navigate the interface where you create the account.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Look at the upper left-hand corner. A find bar will be there to help you out. Locate the ‘create new account’ option in the bar, and click it.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Find and hit the button that says ‘Account Functions’. Then click the ‘create a new account’ option.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Input The Domain Information<\/b><\/h2>\n

    The first dialogue box will ask you about the domain. Tell the cPanel about the website’s domain<\/a> name that you want to associate this particular cPanel account with.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    WHM will automatically make that domain name the username of the account. Then you will be providing the password. You may use any online tool to generate it. The WHM will also show you the strength of the password you pick. Kindly keep updating it until it declares the password as strong.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    What Package Do You Want?<\/b><\/h2>\n

    The next major decision is the selection of the package. Decide your account package. But, wait. What is the package? You can think of different cPanel packages as the bundled configuration settings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you want multiple accounts to have the same settings, you can apply one package to all of them. If you edit one thing in the package, it will apply to all the accounts that use the same package.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    However, you would not have any configured package if you are new. Just check the second option that says ‘Select Option Manually’. That will show you a range of regular options you can select as a package.<\/span><\/p>\n

    All the packages limit any aspect of hosting. Let’s list down the number and the factor they set limits on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 1:\u00a0 Disk Space<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 2:\u00a0 Bandwidth<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 3:\u00a0 Number of FTP & Email Accounts<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 4:\u00a0 Number of FTP & Email Accounts<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 5:\u00a0 Mailing Lists<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 6:\u00a0 MySQL Databases<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 7:\u00a0 Sub-domains<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 8:\u00a0 Parked Domains<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 9:\u00a0 Addon Domains<\/span><\/p>\n

    Package 10: Number of emails sent by a domain per hour<\/span><\/p>\n

    Tell WHM About Your Desired Settings<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Now comes the stage of making the settings you want. The setting dialogue box will show you six different items. Let us discuss them one by one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
