What is Domain Alias?
Popular Linux-based web hosting control panel called cPanel. On a single Virtual Private Server (VPS) or dedicated server, it offers a graphical user interface that makes managing and hosting several websites simple. Using this programme, you may carry out a variety of operations (uploading files, producing emails, making cron jobs, managing databases, etc.).
Users can control their web hosting through the user-level access interface offered by cPanel. Users can manage settings pertaining to server administration and account management through the root and reseller level access interface provided by WHM (Web Host Manager).
