A control panel is your central dashboard for managing your web hosting account and domain on the server. It's a web-based interface—a user-friendly webpage—that lets you control many aspects of your website and hosting environment without needing advanced technical skills.

What Can You Do with a Control Panel?

Through the control panel, you can:

• Manage domains and subdomains: Add, remove, or configure your website addresses.
• Set up and manage email accounts: Create email addresses linked to your domain, set passwords, and configure spam filters.
• Handle databases: Create and manage MySQL or other databases used by your website.
• Manage files: Upload, organize, and edit your website files via file managers or FTP.
• Set up backups: Schedule and restore backups to protect your website data.
• Install applications: Easily install popular software like WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal with one click.
• Configure security: Manage SSL certificates, firewalls, IP blockers, and other security settings.
• Monitor performance: Check website and server statistics, error logs, and resource usage.
• Automate tasks: Set up cron jobs to run scripts automatically at scheduled times.

Why Use a Control Panel?
Managing a web server manually often requires technical expertise and command-line knowledge. A control panel simplifies all these tasks by providing a graphical user interface that anyone can use. This makes website and server management accessible to beginners while still offering powerful tools for experienced users.
