Understanding Linux Hosting with cPanel

Linux hosting, the most popular web hosting platform, offers features commonly used by web designers. cPanel, a hosting control panel, uses a graphical interface to access most of those features. To get your website up and running, set up your Linux Hosting account with cPanel.

Basic steps to use Linux hosting

• Use a FTP client to upload your files
• Your hosting account uses public_html as the root directory for your primary domain.
• If you don't have a website yet, install a Content Management System (CMS), such as WordPress, to build your website and manage its content.
• After you have a website up and running, set up backups so you don't have to worry about losing your content.
