How to log in to cPanel

Log in to the cPanel control panel for your hosting account at https://host1.ebdaahost.com:2083 to manage files, email, databases and domains.

cPanel is where you manage your hosting account: files, mailboxes, databases, domains and SSL certificates.

Steps

  1. Open your browser and go to: https://host1.ebdaahost.com:2083
  2. Enter your hosting account’s cPanel username.
  3. Enter your cPanel password.
  4. Click Log in.

Your cPanel username is not your email address. Use the login details for your hosting account.

What can you do in cPanel?

  • Email Accounts: create new addresses and change their passwords.
  • File Manager: upload and edit your website files in the browser.
  • MySQL Databases: create databases and database users.
  • Domains: add domains and subdomains, and turn on Force HTTPS Redirect.
  • FTP Accounts: create accounts for uploading files. See uploading files with FTP over TLS.

Security tips

  • Use a strong, unique password that you don’t use anywhere else.
  • Don’t share your cPanel login. If your web developer needs to upload files, create a separate FTP account for them that you can delete later.
  • Log out when you finish on a shared computer.

Can’t log in?

  • Make sure you typed port 2083 after the server name.
  • Some networks may block this port; try another network.
  • If you forgot your password, contact support.
