Choosing A Hosting Control Panel By Dan Thompson A factor that is often overlooked when looking for a new web host is the control panel. A host can have great uptime, great disk space and bandwidth but if it has a bad control panel all of that is worthless. Many of the bigger hosts will now come with their own custom built control panels, they may do this for branding purposes so that they stand out from the crowd but the vast majority that I have come across are not user friendly and are a pain in the backside to navigate through. When recommending web hosts to my clients I always tell them to look at the type of control panel they will be given. The most popular control panel at the time of writing is the “Cpanel”; it is the most widely used, user friendly, featured packed control panel around today. Not only is it feature rich but also it is also easy to transfer one site to another if you are indeed switching web hosts. If both of the hosts use the Cpanel then exporting a website from one host to another is as simple as clicking on the export/import buttons! You can imagine the sort of headaches that many users come across when they try to transfer a site from one host to another and the two hosts don’t use the same control panel. There are other hosting control panel’s available but in my experience nothing comes close to matching the Cpanel. If it’s great features and usability that you are after then go for a web host that uses the Cpanel. Dan Thompson is a veteran website designer and has used numerous webhosts in his time.
