How does cpanel-based web hosting work?

For your information, it's good to be aware that the majority of the cPanel-based webspace hosting offers on the current web site hosting market are provided by a very insubstantial business niche (when it comes to yearly cash flow) named hosting reseller. Reseller hosting is a kind of a small-scale business segment, which generates an enormous quantity of different web hosting brands, yet offering absolutely the same solutions: mostly cPanel web hosting solutions. This is bad news for everyone. Why? Due to the fact that at least 98% of the webspace hosting offerings on the whole web page hosting market supply the very same thing: cPanel. There's no difference at all. Even the cPanel-based web hosting price tags are similar. Quite similar. Giving those in need of a top web hosting service almost no other site hosting platform/web page hosting CP alternative. Thus, there is merely a single fact: out of more than two hundred thousand hosting brand names around the world, the non-cPanel based ones are less than two percent! Less than two percent, note that one...

200k "hosting vendors", all cPanel-based, yet distinctly dubbed

The web site hosting "variety" and the web page hosting "offerings" Google shows to all of us come down to just one solution: cPanel. Under hundreds of 1000's of different website hosting trademarked names. Imagine you are simply a normal chap who's not very well aware of (as most of us) with the site development procedures and the web site hosting platforms, which actually power the various domains and websites . Are you ready to make your web hosting decision? Is there any web hosting option you can opt for? Sure there is, right now there are more than 200,000 web hosting suppliers out there. Officially. Then where is the problem? Here's where: more than 98 percent of these 200,000+ unique web hosting brands all over the world will offer you precisely the same cPanel web site hosting CP and platform, named in a different way, with precisely the same price tags! WOW! That's how large the variety on the current hosting marketplace is... Period.

The web page hosting LOTTO we are all paricipating in

Simple math shows that to encounter a non-cPanel based web hosting provider is a huge stroke of luck. There is a less than one in fifty chance that something like that will take place! Less than 1 in fifty...

The strengths and weaknesses of the cPanel webspace hosting solution

Let's not be fierce with cPanel. After all, in the years 2001-2004 cPanel was fashionable and possibly satisfied all web hosting market demands. To cut a long story short, cPanel can do the trick if you have just a single domain to host. But, if you have more domain names...

Inconvenience No.1: A moronic domain folder arrangement

If you have two or more domain names, though, be extra watchful not to remove entirely the add-on ones (that's how cPanel will dub each next hosted domain name, which is not the default one: an add-on domain name). The files of the add-on domain names are quite easy to delete on the server, because they all are set up into the root folder of the default domain, which is the quite popular public_html folder. Each add-on domain is a folder located inside the folder of the default domain. Like a sub-folder. Next time attempt not to remove the files of the add-on domains, please. Observe for yourself how wonderful cPanel's domain name folder system 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 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)
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 confused? We undeniably are!

Negative Aspect Number 2: The very same email folder configuration

The mail folder arrangement on the hosting server is absolutely the same as that of the domains... Repeating the same mistake twice?!? The sysadmin guys firmly reinforce their faith in God when managing the e-mail folders on the mail server, praying not to botch things up too badly.

Disadvantage No.3: An utter lack of domain manipulation sections

Do we need to bring up the sheer lack of a modern domain name administration interface - a location where you can: register/move/renew/park or administer domains, alter domain names' Whois details, shield the Whois information, alter/set up name servers (DNS) and Domain Name System resource records? cPanel does not have such a "modern" tool at all. That's a colossal inconvenience. An unforgettable one, we wish to add...

Negative Side Number Four: Multiple login locations (min two, maximum 3)

How about the necessity for another login to use the invoicing transaction, domain name and technical support management system? That's apart from the cPanel account login credentials you've been already supplied by the cPanel-based webspace hosting provider. Sometimes, based on the invoice transaction tool (particularly designed for cPanel only) the cPanel web hosting corporation is making use of, the devoted customers can end up with 2 additional login locations (1: the invoicing/domain name management software platform; 2: the trouble ticket support menu), ending up with an aggregate of 3 user login places (including cPanel).

Weak Point Number 5: More than 120 site hosting CP menus to get to know... rapidly

cPanel offers for your consideration more than 120 menus inside the web site hosting Control Panel. It's a great idea to memorize each and every one of them. And you'd better memorize them quickly... That's quite arrogant on cPanel's side.

With all due veneration, we have a rhetorical question for all cPanel web hosting companies:

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