cPanel Hosting and Login FAQs

Direct answers about prices, account access and everyday website tasks.

What is cPanel hosting?

cPanel hosting is a web hosting service that includes cPanel, a dashboard for managing your hosting account. You use it to look after the files, email, domains and databases behind your website without running server commands.

  • Website files: upload or organise files through File Manager.
  • Email: create mailboxes for your domain and manage their passwords.
  • Applications: install supported software such as WordPress through the supplied installer.
  • Account tools: review storage usage, SSL status and available backup points.

Your website editor handles the content visitors see. cPanel handles the hosting account that supports it.

How much does cPanel hosting cost in Kenya?

Our WebHosting Starter plan costs Kshs 2,500.00 per year. Its three-year option costs Kshs 6,768.00 upfront, equivalent to Kshs 188.00 per month.

cPanel access is included in the hosting price. Compare plans and select a billing period to see its current total.

How do I log in to Truehost cPanel?

Log in to your Truehost client area, select your active hosting service and choose its cPanel login button.

  1. Open our client area and sign in using your registered email and password.
  2. Open Services or My Services.
  3. Select the hosting package for your website.
  4. Click the cPanel login button.

This route opens the control panel for the selected service, so it is useful when you have several hosting accounts.

Is the client-area login the same as my cPanel login?

No. The client area manages your Truehost services and billing; cPanel manages one hosting account.

  • Client area: sign in using your registered email and password.
  • Direct cPanel access: use the cPanel username and password for that hosting account.
  • Webmail: use the email address and password for the mailbox.

Opening cPanel through the client area saves you from entering a separate control-panel password.

Can I open cPanel directly from my domain?

Yes. Use the cPanel address supplied with your hosting details. A common secure address is https://yourdomain.com:2083, where you replace the example with your own domain.

Your domain needs to point to the hosting server for domain-based access to work. If it does not, use the server hostname provided with your account or open cPanel through our client area.

What should I do if my cPanel login does not work?

First check that you are using the correct login for the account you want to open. A client-area email login is different from a direct cPanel username.

  1. Try opening cPanel through the client area.
  2. Check that you selected an active hosting service.
  3. If using a direct address, confirm the server or domain in your hosting details.
  4. If access still fails, contact support with your domain and the error message.

For a forgotten client-area password, use the password-recovery link on the login page. Do not send your password to support.

Is cPanel free with Truehost hosting?

Yes, cPanel access is included in our paid cPanel hosting plans at no separate licence charge for your shared account. You pay for the hosting plan and use the control panel supplied with it.

cPanel software itself requires a licence. If you install it on your own VPS or dedicated server, you need a suitable server licence, with the price depending on the licence tier and account allowance.

cPanel offers an eligible new server installation a 15-day trial. This is a software trial for your server, rather than a free Truehost hosting account.

Can I pay for cPanel hosting monthly?

Yes. We offer a Webhosting Starter Monthly product for monthly hosting. Choose its monthly billing option in the plan table to see the current charge.

A price labelled “per month” on an annual or three-year offer is a monthly equivalent. The full selected term is billed upfront. Check the billing line beneath the price before ordering.

How many websites can I host?

Our WebHosting Starter plan supports ten websites, Pro supports thirty, and Unlimited offers an unlimited website allowance. Compare the storage and other resources alongside the website count.

Several websites share the resources of the same hosting account. If clients need separate accounts, compare our reseller hosting.

Can I install WordPress through cPanel?

Yes. Our hosting includes a one-click installer for WordPress and other supported applications.

  1. Open the application installer in cPanel.
  2. Select WordPress and choose the domain and installation location.
  3. Set your website title and administrator details.
  4. Install, then open WordPress to add your content.

Check the installation location carefully so you do not replace an existing website.

How do I use cPanel File Manager?

Open File Manager in cPanel and select the folder used by your website. The main domain commonly uses public_html; check the document root for an additional domain before making changes.

  1. Log in to cPanel and open File Manager.
  2. Open your website’s document root.
  3. Select Upload to add files, or select an existing file to edit, download or rename it.
  4. If you upload a ZIP archive, extract it into the intended folder and check that the website files are at the correct level.
  5. Open your website in a browser and check its pages, links and forms.

Keep a copy before replacing files. Uploading an existing WordPress site also requires its database and configuration, so files alone are not a complete migration.

Are email accounts, SSL and backups included?

Yes. Our cPanel hosting plans include email accounts, automated SSL and backups. Starter and Pro include unlimited email accounts and daily backups.

Mailbox data uses hosting storage, so allow space for email as well as your website. Review available restore points before restoring a backup, especially for a site receiving orders or enquiries.

Can I use a domain registered elsewhere?

Yes. You can keep your domain at another registrar and point it to our hosting. Use the nameservers or DNS records supplied with your hosting account.

If email stays with another provider, preserve its mail records when making DNS changes. A domain registration and a hosting account are separate services.

Can I move my existing website to Truehost?

Yes. We offer one free eligible website migration per service under our migration policy. Share the platform, size and account details needed for the transfer with our support team through the appropriate support channel.

Keep the old hosting active until the copied website has been checked. Review pages, email, forms and any checkout before changing DNS and closing the old account.

What is the difference between cPanel and WHM?

cPanel manages an individual hosting account; WHM manages hosting accounts and server-level settings.

  • cPanel: website files, email, databases and domains.
  • WHM: account creation and administration within the permissions of a reseller or server account.

Shared hosting suits your own websites. Choose reseller hosting when you need to manage separate client accounts.

Do I need a domain as well as cPanel hosting?

Yes, you need a domain for customers to reach your website at your chosen address. Hosting stores your website files; the domain points visitors to that hosting account.

You can register a domain with us or use one you already own. Domain inclusion depends on the hosting plan and billing term: our Unlimited plan includes a .co.ke domain on its annual option. Compare domain prices if you need a separate registration.

How do I create business email in cPanel?

Open Email Accounts in cPanel, choose your domain and create a mailbox with its own password. You can then use webmail or connect the mailbox to an email application.

  1. Choose an address such as [email protected].
  2. Set a strong mailbox password and a suitable storage quota.
  3. Open the connection settings for your email app, or use webmail.
  4. Send and receive a test message before sharing the address.

If your email is hosted elsewhere, keep its existing mail records when connecting your website to our hosting.

What is the difference between cPanel and WordPress?

cPanel manages your hosting account; WordPress manages your website content. They work together when you install WordPress on your cPanel hosting.

  • Use cPanel: to manage files, email accounts, databases, domains and available backups.
  • Use WordPress: to edit pages, publish posts, choose themes and manage plugins.

Your WordPress administrator details are separate from your cPanel and client-area credentials.

Can I restore my website from a backup?

Yes, you can restore from the backup points available for your hosting account. Review the backup date and choose whether you need website files, a database or a wider account restore.

  1. Open the backup tools supplied with your account.
  2. Choose a restore point from before the problem started.
  3. Review the data that a restore will replace, including recent orders or form submissions.
  4. Check the website after restoration, or contact support for help.

Keep a separate copy before major updates so you also have a recent recovery point for your own changes.

How do I upload my website to cPanel?

Upload your website into its document root using File Manager, or transfer it with an FTP client using the connection details supplied for your account. For the main domain, the folder is commonly public_html.

  • File Manager: open the website folder, choose Upload and select your files. For a ZIP upload, extract the archive and check that the home page is in the correct folder.
  • FTP client: enter your account’s server address and FTP credentials, connect and transfer the files into that website’s document root. Use an encrypted connection supported by your server.

For WordPress or another database-driven site, also import the database and update the application’s database settings. Point your domain to the hosting account, then test the site over HTTPS.

What can I use cPanel for?

You can use cPanel to manage the hosting services behind your website from your browser. The tools available depend on your hosting package.

  • Upload files and manage website folders.
  • Create domain email accounts and access webmail.
  • Create databases and manage database users.
  • Install supported applications such as WordPress.
  • Manage domains, redirects and available DNS settings.
  • Check SSL certificates, backup points and account usage.

For editing your website’s pages and design, use the editor supplied by your website application.

Can a cPanel account be hacked?

Yes, a cPanel account can be compromised if someone obtains its credentials or exploits vulnerable software associated with the account. No control panel can guarantee protection from every attack.

  • Use a strong, unique password for cPanel and separate passwords for email and website administrators.
  • Enable two-factor authentication when it is available for your account.
  • Keep WordPress, themes and plugins updated, and remove software you no longer use.
  • Use HTTPS and avoid sharing account credentials over unsecured messages.
  • Keep backups and review unexpected files, users or changes.

If you suspect unauthorised access, contact our support team promptly with your domain and the changes you observed. Change affected passwords from a trusted device.

Is cPanel a good choice for hosting my website?

Yes, cPanel is a practical choice when you want to manage website files, email and databases through a browser dashboard. It works with business websites, blogs and supported applications such as WordPress and WooCommerce.

The control panel does not determine the hosting capacity you need. Compare storage, website allowances and the demands of your application before choosing a plan. For custom server software or root access, compare our VPS hosting options.

How do I host a website with cPanel?

Choose a cPanel hosting plan, connect your domain, then install your website application or upload your existing site. Complete the setup by checking HTTPS and testing the website.

  1. Choose a plan with enough website capacity and storage.
  2. Open cPanel from your active service in the Truehost client area.
  3. Connect your domain using the hosting details supplied for your account.
  4. Install WordPress through the application installer, or upload an existing site into its document root.
  5. For an existing database-driven site, import its database and configure the database connection.
  6. Check SSL status once the domain points to the account, then test pages, forms and email.

A new WordPress installation creates its own database through the installer. An existing site migration needs both its files and its database.

cPanel Web Hosting FAQs

What is the purpose of a cPanel

cPanel is a web hosting control panel that lets you manage every part of your website from a single dashboard — no coding needed.

You can upload files, create emails, install apps like WordPress, manage backups, and monitor traffic.

It simplifies web hosting for beginners and gives full control to advanced users.

How do I upload my site to cPanel?

There are two main ways to upload your site to cPanel:

a) File Manager (easiest):

  • → Log into cPanel →
  • → Go to File Manager →
  • → Open the public_html folder
  • → Click Upload
  • → Select your website files.

b)FTP (File Transfer Protocol)

  • → Use an FTP tool like FileZilla
  • → Enter your cPanel login and FTP credentials
  • → Connect and upload your files to the public_html directory.

Once uploaded, your site will be live at your domain.

How much does cPanel cost?

For individual users, cPanel is usually included in your cPanelhosting plan (sharedhosting) at no extra charge.

If you’re a server admin or reseller, standalone cPanel licenses start from $27/month and vary based on the number of accounts.

But for most shared hosting users, you won’t pay anything extra.

What can I use cPanel for?

  • Install CMS platforms like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal
  • Create and manage professional email accounts
  • Upload files, manage databases (like MySQL)
  • Install SSL certificates
  • Backup and restore your website
  • Set up domain redirects and subdomains
  • Monitor bandwidth, storage, and resource usage

Is cPanel free?

cPanel itself is not free and requires a paid license, with costs depending on factors like the number of accounts or server type (e.g., VPS or dedicated).

However, there are ways to access it without additional cost.

  • Bundled with Hosting: Many hosting providers like Truehost include cPanel at no extra charge with shared hosting plans.
  • Free Hosting Providers: Some platforms like GoogieHost or CpanelFree.com offer free hosting with cPanel, though with limitations like restricted storage or ads.
  • Free Trial: cPanel offers a 15-day trial with access to most features, but a license is required afterward.

Can cPanel be hacked?

Yes — like any software, cPanel can be hacked if not secured properly.

But with basic security practices, you can protect your cPanel account:

  • Use a strong password
  • Enable 2FA (two-factor authentication)
  • Keep all apps like WordPress updated
  • Use secure SSL (HTTPS)
  • Limit login attempts

Reputable hosts like Truehost also have firewalls and malware scanning in place to keep your site safe.

Which is better: WordPress or cPanel?

That’s like comparing a car to a garage.

  • cPanel is a control panel — where you manage your web hosting
  • WordPress is a website builder — where you create your content

You use cPanel to install and manage WordPress. So, they work together, not against each other. If you’re building a blog or site, you’ll likely install WordPress inside cPanel.

Is cPanel good for hosting?

Absolutely.
cPanel is one of the most reliable, beginner-friendly control panels in the world.

It’s used by millions globally because it’s:

  • Easy to use
  • Secure
  • Feature-rich
  • Compatible with 100+ web apps

If you’re hosting a personal blog, eCommerce store, or business site in Kenya, cPanel is one of the best choices.

How to host a website on cPanel?

Here’s how to get your website live using cPanel:

  1. Buy a hosting plan with cPanel access
  2. Log in to your cPanel account
  3. Upload files to public_html via File Manager or FTP
  4. Create a database if using platforms like WordPress
  5. Install WordPress or your CMS with 1-click installer (like Softaculous)
  6. Point your domain to your hosting account (if separate)
  7. Secure with SSL and test your site

Your site should now be live!
