Hey, you found us.

What we do

The cPanel Admin helps cpanel system administrators maximize their potential by providing a targeted wealth of knowledge that furthers productivity, efficiency, and quality in order to give a technical advantage in a fast-growing and highly competitive industry.

In other words, we know stuff about cPanel.

Who we are

There are several contributors and investors to this blog. We will have bio pages up shortly, but in the meantime, you should know that everyone that contributes articles to this site is a cPanel expert working in the hosting industry. We don’t take stuff off other sites and reword it to pretend like we know what we’re doing – this is the real deal.  We all have contributions that make this blog unique and informational.

How this all started

This site is a combined effort between several technical professionals in the hosting industry. We noticed that there are a ton of sites out there about Linux administration, some of which sparsely offer tips and tricks for cPanel. Then there were the few sites that were actually targeted to cPanel Linux admins, but that haven’t been maintained or updated regularly. That’s when we came up with The cPanel Admin blog concept, to provide a resource only for cPanel Linux administrators. We write articles that we truly believe will be useful and beneficial, and better yet, it’s targeted to the cPanel audience so you don’t have to tiptoe around trying to find a adapt our articles to a cPanel environment…all of our articles are written for cPanel servers, by cPanel admins.

Why you need this site

One of the biggest problems in system administration is knowing how to do something but not know how that something actually works. Our site is different because we want you, as the system administrator – the most important person in your company, to gain an understanding about cPanel that will essentially allow you to figure out almost anything when it comes to your server. We take our informational topics and expand them to a more advanced level that you just don’t get in the cPanel documentation. We want you to know how things work so you can come up with solutions. Educated sysadmins get the job done faster, quicker, and better.

How you can support this site

Running a website is expensive from a time standpoint. We all have full time jobs and social lives, and we work very hard supporting our consultation business.  We’re offering up our expertise for free, with little return other than the satisfaction of providing a valuable service – and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

We spend about 20 hours a week updating, promoting, and improving this site and we want people to use it, which will lead to increased funding for this project that will provide us with the ability to expand our article base. Therefore, there are a few ways that you can help support this website – any support is appreciated:

• Purchase ad space
• Donate. You can currently make donations via PayPal to admin[at]thecpaneladmin.com
• Spread the word! If you like our site, tell your friends about it!
