How does cpanel-based site hosting operate?

For your info, it's good to know that most of the cPanel hosting offers on today's web page hosting marketplace are provided by a very insignificant business niche (as far as annual money flow is concerned) called reseller hosting. Reseller web hosting is a type of a small-scale marketing niche, which generates an immense amount of different web hosting trademarks, yet offering one and the same solutions: mainly cPanel web hosting solutions. This is bad news for everybody. Why? Due to the fact that at least 98 percent of the web site hosting offers on the whole hosting marketplace supply absolutely the same solution: cPanel. There's no variety at all. Even the cPanel-based webspace hosting prices are alike. Very identical. Giving those who demand a top web hosting service practically no other hosting platform/web hosting Control Panel choice. So, there is just one single fact: out of more than two hundred thousand web site hosting trademarks around the world, the non-cPanel based ones are less than 2 percent! Less than 2 percent, remark that one...

200,000 "hosting vendors", all cPanel-based, yet distinctly branded

The web site hosting "variety" and the site hosting "offers" Google shows to us boil down to merely one and the same thing: cPanel. Under 100's of 1000's of different website hosting trademarked names. Suppose you are simply an average chap who's not very well acquainted with (as the majority of us) with the web site making processes and the web page hosting platforms, which in fact power the separate domain names and sites . Are you ready to make your hosting decision? Is there any site hosting variant you can settle on? Sure there is, nowadays there are more than 200,000 web space hosting firms out there. Formally. Then where is the difficulty? Here's where: more than ninety eight percent of these 200k+ unique webspace hosting brand names in the world will offer you precisely the same cPanel web hosting CP and platform, dubbed in a different way, with absolutely the same price tags! WOW! That's how immense the assortment on the contemporary web hosting marketplace is... Full stop.

The web page hosting LOTTO we are all part of

Simple arithmetic shows that to come across a non-cPanel based web hosting provider is a mammoth stroke of luck. There is a less than one in fifty chance that something like that will occur! Less than one in fifty...

The positive and negative sides of the cPanel-based web page hosting solution

Let's not be harsh with cPanel. After all, in the years 2001-2004 cPanel was trendy and probably satisfied all web page hosting industry requirements. To cut a long story short, cPanel can do the trick if you have only one single domain to host. But, if you have more domains...

Negative Sign Number 1: A laughable domain name folder configuration

If you have two or more domains, though, be ultra attentive not to erase completely the add-on ones (that's how cPanel will call each new hosted domain, which is not the default one: an add-on domain). The files of the add-on domain names are quite simple to delete on the web server, because they all are placed into the root folder of the default domain name, 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 try not to erase the files of the add-on domain names, please. Observe for yourself how wonderful cPanel's domain folder structure is:

public_html (here my-default-domain.com is located)
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)
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 becoming nonplussed? We undeniably are!

Downside Number 2: The same mail folder setup

The mail folder arrangement on the hosting server is literally the same as that of the domain names... Making the very same error twice?!? The admin chaps strongly fortify their faith in God when coping with the mail folders on the e-mail server, hoping not to bungle things up too gravely.

Predicament No.3: An absolute lack of domain name management interfaces

Do we have to bring up the absolute lack of a contemporary domain administration user interface - a place where you can: register/transfer/renew/park or manage domain names, alter domain names' Whois information, shield the Whois information, change/create name servers (DNS) and Domain Name System records? cPanel does not involve such a "modern" interface at all. That's a colossal problem. An unpardonable one, we want to point out...

Shortcoming No.4: Numerous login locations (minimum 2, maximum 3)

What about the need for another login to avail of the billing transaction, domain and tech support administration platform? That's beside the cPanel login credentials you've been already given by the cPanel-based web hosting company. Occasionally, on the basis of the billing tool (particularly made for cPanel solely) the cPanel web hosting service provider is utilizing, the avid customers can end up with two extra login locations (1: the billing/domain name management software solution; 2: the ticket support software platform), winding up with a total of 3 login places (including cPanel).

Weak Point No.5: 120+ webspace hosting Control Panel areas to learn... promptly

cPanel offers for your consideration more than a hundred and twenty departments inside the web site hosting Control Panel. It's a fantastic idea to get familiar with each one of them. And you'd better become acquainted with them swiftly... That's quite impertinent on cPanel's side.

With all due veneration, we have a rhetorical question for all cPanel-based site hosting firms:

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