One of the most important aspects of a web hosting service people tend to overlook is the control panel. WebHostControlPanels.com (WHCP) aims to get consumers fully informed on the different web hosting control panels being used in the web hosting industry today!

There are a lot of different items that a consumer should consider when choosing a web hosting provider: amount of resources, supported technology, uptime, location, etc. There are tons of great resources on the Internet on what you should look for in a web host. Most of these resources focuses on the aforementioned areas and don't really provide much information on the control panel that the web host employs. WHCP aims to fill this void by providing an in depth look at the most popular web hosting control panels used by web hosts today.

At WebHostControlPanels.com, you will be able to compare different control panels and find the one the best suits your needs. Identifying which control panel you prefer will help you select your web hosting provider rather than having a control panel forced on you by your web host. While some may argue that a web host and a control panel are one and the same, we beg to differ. While there are web hosts that use an in-house, custom built, control panel, there are many different web hosts that employ a control panel that is developed by a third-party software vendor, such as cPanel and Plesk. In this case, many different web hosts would be offering the same control panel. Although the same control panel would offer the same functionality, the services offered among the different web hosts can differ greatly. Just because you love your control panel doesn't mean you feel the same way about your web hosting provider and vice versa.

The control panels on this site will primarily be reviewed on shared web hosting plans running the LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack.We hope that the information presented on our site will help you make a better informed decision when picking your next (or first) web host.
