For your info, it's useful to know that most of the cPanel-based Web Hosting offerings on the present website hosting marketplace are generated by a very insignificant marketing niche (as far as annual cash flow is concerned) named reseller hosting. Reseller web hosting is a type of a small-scale business niche, which generates a great amount of different web hosting brand names, yet providing precisely the same thing: mostly cPanel web hosting solutions. This is bad news for everyone. Why? Due to the fact that at least ninety eight percent of the web hosting offerings on the whole web hosting marketplace furnish the same thing: cPanel. There's no diversity at all. Even the cPanel-based Web Hosting price tags are similar. Quite identical. Giving those who need a top web hosting service practically no other web hosting platform/website hosting CP option. So, there is merely one fact: out of more than 200k website hosting trademarks worldwide, the non-cPanel based ones are less than two percent! Less than two percent, mark that one...

200,000 "Web Hosting distributors", all cPanel-based, yet distinctly labeled

The Web Hosting "diversity" and the web hosting "offers" Google shows to us come down to just one and the same thing: cPanel. Under hundreds of 1000's of different website hosting trademarked names. Imagine you are just a normal fellow who's not very well aware of (as most of us) with the web page making procedures and the hosting platforms, which actually power the different domain names and websites. Are you ready to make your web hosting pick? Is there any hosting option you can select? Sure there is, now there are more than 200,000 website hosting corporations out there. Formally. Then where is the problem? Here's where: more than 98 percent of these 200k+ unique web hosting brands around the world will give you the very same cPanel web hosting Control Panel and platform, branded in a different way, with exactly the same price tags! WOW! That's how enormous the assortment on the present web hosting marketplace is... Period.

The Web Hosting LOTTERY we are all part of

Simple mathematics demonstrates that to chance upon a non-cPanel based web hosting vendor is an immense stroke of luck. There is a less than 1 in 50 chance that something like that will occur! Less than 1 in 50...

The positive and negative points of the cPanel Web Hosting solution

Let's not be severe with cPanel. At least, in the years 2001-2004 cPanel was modish and probably covered most website hosting market requirements. In brief, cPanel can do the trick if you have just a single domain to host. But, if you have more domain names...

Negative Side Number 1: An idiotic domain folder setup

If you have 2 or more domains, though, be very attentive not to remove fully the add-on ones (that's how cPanel will call each new hosted domain name, which is not the default one: an add-on domain name). The files of the add-on domain names are quite simple to erase on the hosting server, because they all are placed into the root folder of the default domain name, which is the very famous public_html folder. Each add-on domain name is a folder placed inside the folder of the default domain. Like a sub-folder. Next time try not to remove the files of the add-on domain names, please. See for yourself how amazing cPanel's domain folder setup is:

public_html (here my-default-domain.com is placed)
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)
public_html/my-third-domain.com (an add-on domain name)
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 becoming bewildered? We undeniably are!

Weak Side Number 2: The very same electronic mail folder structure

The e-mail folder structure on the server is exactly the same as that of the domains... Making the same error twice?!? The sysadmin boys firmly strengthen their faith in God when dealing with the electronic mail folders on the electronic mail server, praying not to mess things up too irreparably.

Negative Sign No.3: An utter shortage of domain name management interfaces

Do we need to bring up the absolute deficiency of a modern domain name manipulation tool - a location where you can: register/move/renew/park or administer domains, edit domains' Whois info, secure the Whois info, change/set up name servers (DNS) and DNS resource records? cPanel does not furnish such a "modern" tool at all. That's a huge predicament. An inexcusable one, we want to add...

Disadvantage No.4: Numerous user login locations (min two, max three)

What about the need for another login to make use of the invoice transaction, domain name and technical support management interface? That's apart from the cPanel account login credentials you've been already provided by the cPanel-based Web Hosting firm. Now and then, based on the billing transaction system (particularly intended for cPanel solely) the cPanel Web Hosting firm is making use of, the avid users can wind up with two extra logins (1: the billing transaction/domain management menu; 2: the trouble ticket support section), ending up with an aggregate of 3 login places (counting cPanel).

Problem Number 5: More than 120 web hosting CP menus to learn... rapidly

cPanel presents to your attention more than 120 sections inside the web hosting Control Panel. It's a wonderful idea to get acquainted with each and every one of them. And you'd better memorize them quickly... That's way too arrogant on cPanel's side.

With all due respect, we have a rhetorical question for all cPanel Web Hosting firms:

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