How does cpanel web hosting function?

For your information, it's useful to know that the majority of the cPanel-based web space hosting offers on the current website hosting market are provided by a quite unsubstantial business segment (when it comes to yearly money flow) dubbed hosting reseller. Reseller hosting is a type of a small-size marketing niche, which generates a great quantity of different web hosting trademarks, yet providing one and the same services: mainly cPanel web hosting services. This is bad news for everybody. Why? Due to the fact that at least 98 percent of the hosting offers on the entire webspace hosting market supply precisely the same solution: cPanel. There's no diversity at all. Even the cPanel web page hosting prices are alike. Quite similar. Leaving for those who require a top web hosting service almost no other web page hosting platform/webspace hosting Control Panel option. So, there is simply a single fact: out of more than two hundred thousand webspace hosting trademarks in the world, the non-cPanel based ones are less than 2 percent! Less than 2%, mark that one...

200k "site hosting firms", all cPanel-based, yet diversely dubbed

The site hosting "variety" and the site hosting "offers" Google shows to all of us boil down to merely one thing: cPanel. Under 100's of thousands of different web site hosting brand names. Imagine you are merely a regular bloke who's not very well acquainted with (as the majority of us) with the web site making procedures and the web hosting platforms, which actually power the different domains and web sites . Are you prepared to make your hosting selection? Is there any website hosting option you can choose? Sure there is, at the moment there are more than 200k hosting service providers out there. Officially. Then where is the difficulty? Here's where: more than 98 percent of these 200,000+ unique web site hosting brand names across the world will give you the very same cPanel CP and platform, dubbed differently, with absolutely the same price tags! WOW! That's how vast the variety on today's webspace hosting market is... Full stop.

The web page hosting LOTTO we are all part of

Simple mathematics shows that to chance upon a non-cPanel based web hosting firm is a gigantic strike of luck. There is a less than 1 in 50 chance that something like that will happen! Less than 1 in 50...

The strong and weak sides of the cPanel web hosting solution

Let's not be fierce with cPanel. After all, in the years 2001-2004 cPanel was trendy and probably fulfilled most hosting industry demands. To cut a long story short, cPanel can achieve the desired result if you have only one domain to host. But, if you have more domains...

Weak Side Number One: A moronic domain folder configuration

If you have 2 or more domains, though, be extremely cautious not to erase fully the add-on ones (that's how cPanel will call each next hosted domain, which is not the default one: an add-on domain). The files of the add-on domains are quite easy to erase on the web server, because they all are situated 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. Like a sub-folder. Next time attempt not to erase the files of the add-on domain names, please. Determine for yourself how terrific cPanel's domain name folder setup 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 perplexed? We unquestionably are!

Negative Point Number 2: The same electronic mail folder arrangement

The e-mail folder configuration on the web hosting server is strictly the same as that of the domains... Repeating the same error twice?!? The admin boys strongly strengthen their faith in God when coping with the mail folders on the mail server, praying not to muck things up too fatally.

Negative Sign Number Three: An entire shortage of domain name manipulation GUIs

Do we need to point out the entire lack of a contemporary domain management user interface - a place where you can: register/relocate/renew/park or administer domain names, change domain names' Whois info, shield the Whois information, edit/create nameservers (DNS) and Domain Name System records? cPanel does not incorporate such a "modern" GUI at all. That's a colossal disadvantage. An unpardonable one, we want to point out...

Weak Side Number 4: Numerous user login locations (minimum two, max 3)

How about the demand for an extra login to utilize the invoicing, domain and technical support administration software solution? That's apart from the cPanel login credentials you've been already provided by the cPanel-based site hosting service provider. Sometimes, depending on the invoicing tool (principally built for cPanel exclusively) the cPanel web hosting distributor is using, the ardent customers can wind up with two additional logins (1: the invoice transaction/domain management platform; 2: the ticket support software platform), ending up with an aggregate of 3 user login locations (including cPanel).

Downside No.5: More than one hundred and twenty webspace hosting CP areas to get familiar with... quickly

cPanel offers for your consideration more than 120 sections inside the hosting CP. It's a terrific idea to memorize each one of them. And you'd better memorize them fast... That's quite insolent on cPanel's side.

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

As far as we are aware of, it's not the year 2001, is it? Remark that one too...
