How to open cPanel on a Linux account

The cPanel button on the Linux row signs you into the account. You do not type a separate password.

Hosting

How to open Plesk on a Windows account

The Plesk button on the Windows row opens files, databases, mail and WordPress.

Hosting

How to install WordPress on your domain

The installer lives inside the hosting account. A separate site is not created on the TechNest address.

Hosting

File transfer and FTP

The file port is 21. The user and password match your cPanel or Plesk password.

Hosting

Where to create a database

The database is inside cPanel or Plesk. The TechNest panel does not replace it.

Hosting

Several sites on one account

A multi plan adds extra domains to the same account panel. Each name’s name servers must point at that account.

Hosting

When a dedicated IP is useful

A dedicated IP adds a separate address to the Linux account. Most sites open on the shared address.

Hosting

When a dedicated server becomes ready

A dedicated server does not open by itself. After payment the order is prepared, and the management details appear on the card when it is ready.

Hosting

Mail and PHP inside the hosting panel

On Linux, mailboxes and the PHP version are in cPanel. On Windows, the same jobs are in Plesk.

Hosting

Open several customer accounts

The accounts plan lets you open separate panels for your own customers. Each customer sees their own domain.

Hosting

When the site shows error 500

500 means the server could not build the page. A taken domain name does not explain it.

Hosting

When a page shows 404

404 means the server found no file at that address. It does not mean the whole site is gone.

Hosting

When WordPress shows a white screen

A white screen is PHP hiding an error. The site has not been deleted.

Hosting

Add a second domain to the same hosting

If the plan allows more than one site, you add the second domain as an extra site.

Hosting

Change the PHP version

WordPress and the plugins ask for a particular PHP. Do not pick the newest one at random.

Hosting

What to do when the disk is full

When the quota is full the site slows, mail stops, and uploads are refused.

Hosting

Upload a file with FTP

FTP is the file manager as a program. Do not paste the password into the website.

Hosting

Linux or Windows

Linux is enough for PHP and WordPress. Windows is for applications that specifically need Windows.
