cPanel is the industry leading control panel for managing every aspect of your website. All Shared Web Hosting and Reseller Hosting plans with Acenet include the cPanel control panel for managing your domain(s).
cPanel is the control panel for your web hosting account. You use it to manage email accounts, domains, files, databases, backups and security for your websites.


The guides below provide some tips on the general usage of cPanel functions. These articles are targeted toward end-users of cPanel, that is, users who login directly to the cPanel portal.  
To log in, go to your hosting plan in the [https://billing.ace-host.net Client Area] and click '''Log in to cPanel'''. See [[Log in to cPanel and WHM from the Client Area]], or [[cPanel, WHM and Webmail login addresses]] to log in directly.


If you are a Reseller and you wish to begin creating your own accounts, please see our documentation on [[:Category:WHM (Web Host Manager)]].  WHM is the Reseller-only panel used for creating new cPanel accounts.
