Adding a domain to your cPanel account is a crucial step in managing your web hosting and expanding your online presence. At Tivahub, we want to make sure our users have a seamless experience. This guide will walk you through the process of adding a domain to your cPanel account.

Step 1: Log in to Your Tivahub cPanel Account

1. Open your web browser and navigate to cpanel.yourdomainname.com.
2. Enter your cPanel username and password to log in.

Step 2: Locate the “Domains” Section

• Once logged in, scroll down to the “Domains” section.

– Then click the “Create A New Domain” button

Step 3: Enter Domain Information

1. In the new domain name page, enter the domain name you want to add (e.g., newdomain.com).
2. The “Subdomain” and “Document Root” fields will auto-fill. The subdomain is used internally by cPanel, and the document root is the directory where your domain’s files will be stored. You can modify these if necessary, but the default settings are usually fine.
3. Remember to untick the “Share document root (/home/…..” box
4. Then click the “Submit” button. cPanel will now create the new domain. This might take a few moments.
