There are literally hundreds of articles available on its usage, this makes cPanel very easy to learn for customers that are new to web hosting.

Typical of most cPanel hosts, Hostmonster supports addon domains, and currently Hostmonster supports UNLIMITED addon domains. During our testing, adding multiple domains was very simple, and worked as expected and without fault. Initially Hostmonster do not offer SSH (shell access), but this can be enabled if you upload a copy of your photo id via the control panel, or fax a copy of your photo id, such as a driver's license to Hostmonster. Since cPanel also includes Fantastico, installation of many popular scripts is made simple, requiring little in the way of user input during configuration.
