Setting up a Domain Using cPanel's WebHost Manager

To set up a domain in cPanel's WebHost Manager, you must create an account. When you create an account in WebHost Manager, it automatically creates hosting and a zone file for a particular domain.

Before you create an account, make sure that you complete the initial WebHost Manager setup process outlined in Setting Up WebHost Manager for the First Time.

To Create an Account in WebHost Manager

  2. From the Main section on the right, select Account Functions.
  3. Click Create a New Account.
