A Control Panel is a web-based user interface where you can manage numerous aspects of your web presence. For instance, you may create or change website files, create and check e-mails, handle databases, check visitor statistics and so forth. These things are done using buttons and menus within an internet browser and the Control Panel may also be called ‘back office’, i.e. the admin area associated with your web hosting account. Most Control Panels out there will enable you to control all hosting-related matters, but you shall often need a different system to deal with payments or to get a new domain in case the company offers domain registrations. With respect to the platform they employ, you can be able to use the billing account to open a support ticket to ask a question or to troubleshoot and fix an issue as well, or you might have to employ a 3rd system.
