1. First step: Understand the domain creation process through the web control panel. top..
In order to create a domain that includes website, mail site and FTP site, you have to first create a web user administrator. You’ll then create a site and link that web user administrator that you’ve just created in order for it to be able to manage the domain.
There are 2 levels of administrator. The higher level is the reseller level, where the administrator can create, manage and delete multiple domains. The lower level is the web user level, where ONLY the user can manage its own website. |
