cPanel Website Hosting Explanation

For your info, it's useful to know that the majority of the cPanel website hosting offers on the present-day web hosting marketplace are generated by a very inconsiderable marketing segment (as far as yearly money flow is concerned) named reseller hosting. Reseller website hosting is a sort of a small business niche, which provides an enormous number of different web hosting brands, yet providing absolutely the same solutions: chiefly cPanel web hosting services. This is bad news for everybody. Why? Because at least ninety eight percent of the web hosting offers on the entire web hosting marketplace offer the same service: cPanel. There's no variety at all. Even the cPanel-based website hosting price tags are identical. Very identical. Giving those who require a top web hosting service virtually no other website hosting platform/hosting Control Panel option. So, there is only a single fact: out of more than 200,000 web hosting trademarks all over the world, the non-cPanel based ones are less than 2 percent! Less than two percent, remark that one...

200,000 "website hosting distributors", all cPanel-based, yet diversely dubbed

The website hosting "diversity" and the web hosting "offerings" Google shows to all of us come down to merely one thing: cPanel. Under 100's of 1000's of different web hosting brand names. Imagine you are only a normal chap who's not very well aware of (as the majority of us) with the site creation procedures and the web hosting platforms, which in fact power the various domain names and online portals. Are you prepared to make your web hosting decision? Is there any web hosting variant you can decide upon? Of course there is, at the moment there are more than 200k web hosting firms out there. Officially. Then where is the problem? Here's where: more than 98 percent of these more than two hundred thousand unique web hosting brand names worldwide will offer you exactly the same cPanel website hosting Control Panel and platform, dubbed in a different way, with the very same price tags! WOW! That's how large the diversity on the current web hosting marketplace is... Full stop.

The website hosting LOTTERY we are all part of

Simple arithmetic demonstrates that to run into a non-cPanel based web hosting supplier is a colossal strike of luck. There is a less than 1 in fifty chance that something like that will occur! Less than 1 in fifty...

The strong and weak sides of the cPanel website hosting solution

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

Predicament Number 1: A ludicrous domain folder setup

If you have two or more domain names, however, be extremely careful not to remove entirely the add-on ones (that's how cPanel will call each subsequent hosted domain name, which is not the default one: an add-on domain). The files of the add-on domain names are quite easy to delete on the hosting server, because they all are created into the root folder of the default domain, which is the quite famous public_html folder. Each add-on domain name is a folder placed 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 great cPanel's domain folder configuration is:

public_html (here my-default-domain.com is situated)
public_html/my-family (a folder part of my-default-domain.com)
public_html/my-second-domain.com (an add-on domain name)
public_html/my-second-wife (a folder part of my-default-domain.com)
public_html/my-second-wife.net (an add-on domain name)
public_html/my-third-domain.com (an add-on domain)
public_html/my-third-wife (a folder part of my-default-domain.com)
public_html/my-third-wife.net (an add-on domain name)
public_html/rebeka (a folder part of my-default-domain.com)
public_html/rebeka.my-third-wife.net (a sub-domain of an add-on domain name)

Are you growing bewildered? We undoubtedly are!

Predicament Number Two: The very same electronic mail folder setup

The mail folder structure on the web hosting server is literally the same as that of the domain names... Making the same mistake twice?!? The admin boys strongly increase their faith in God when managing the mail folders on the email server, hoping not to botch things up too fatally.

Problem No.3: An absolute absence of domain name manipulation options

Do we have to mention the entire lack of a modern domain name administration interface - a location where you can: register/relocate/renew/park or administer domains, edit domains' Whois information, protect the Whois information, alter/create nameservers (DNS) and DNS resource records? cPanel does not offer such a "modern" menu at all. That's a huge weakness. An unpardonable one, we wish to point out...

Negative Side No.4: Many login places (min two, maximum three)

What about the need for an additional login to access the billing transaction, domain name and tech support administration software platform? That's aside from the cPanel login credentials you've been already given by the cPanel-based website hosting vendor. At times, depending on the billing transaction system (especially invented for cPanel solely) the cPanel website hosting supplier is using, the avid users can end up with two extra login places (1: the billing/domain name management platform; 2: the trouble ticket support system), winding up with an aggregate of three login locations (counting cPanel).

Shortcoming Number Five: More than one hundred and twenty website hosting Control Panel sections to pick up... promptly

cPanel presents for your consideration more than a hundred and twenty areas inside the website hosting Control Panel. It's a marvelous idea to become acquainted with each of them. And you'd better grasp them fast... That's very arrogant on cPanel's side.

With all due veneration, we have a rhetorical question for all cPanel website hosting corporations:

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