How to log into cPanel

Note: Depending on your operating system and web browser, your computer may display the login prompt slightly different that what is displayed in the video. Even though it looks a little different, it works the same way.

Please note that you only get one login per cPanel. If you create addon, parked and subdomains, then those domains do not have a separate cPanel nor a separate login. Hint: To login to the cPanel for your addon domain, just login to your main cPanel. It is all managed under one control panel.

If you recently purchased a new account with HostGator, you should type the following information into the address bar of your browser:

http://YourSitesIPAddress/cpanel

(Example: http://1.2.3.4/cpanel)


If your domain name is already pointing to HostGator, then you can use the domain name to log into cPanel. Here is an example:
http://www.yourdomainname.com/cpanel
or

http://cpanel.yourdomainname.com/
