  • 0

Welcome to your new cPanel Shared Hosting account! Here are the first steps to take:

  • 1. Check your Welcome Email: It contains your cPanel URL, username, and password.
  • 2. Log into cPanel: Access your control panel to manage all aspects of your hosting.
  • 3. Upload your Website: Use the File Manager in cPanel or connect via an FTP client (like FileZilla) using your cPanel credentials.
  • 4. Create Email Accounts: Navigate to Email Accounts in cPanel to create professional addresses (e.g., hello@yourdomain.com).
  • 5. Install WordPress: If you are building a new site, use the Softaculous Apps Installer to deploy WordPress with a single click.

Remember to update your domain nameservers if your domain was registered elsewhere.
