How can I view my website using a temporary URL and cPanel on my server?


If you have cPanel installed on your server, you can view any website on your server using the following temporary URL:

http://[IP ADDRESS]/~[ACCOUNT NAME]

[IP ADDRESS] needs to be replaced with your server’s IP address, and [ACCOUNT NAME] needs to be replaced with your cPanel’s account name.

If you are not certain about your cPanel’s account name, log into your cPanel account and click ‘View Accounts’ in the left-hand navigation bar.

The table of all the accounts on the server will be displayed.  The account name is listed under the ‘Username’ column.
