To open an account on cPanel.net, follow these steps:

• Go to the Create a New Account section in the WHM interface (WHM / Home / Account Functions / Create a New Account).
• Input the main settings: domain, username, password, and email.
• Once completed, make sure the account settings are correct.
• Select the Create button to make the account.

Remember, the username must be unique and contain 16 characters or fewer. It must contain only lower-case letters and numbers. The username cannot start with a number or the test string. The username’s first eight characters must be unique if you plan to use MySQL® or PostgreSQL®. This prevents issues with database prefixing and account transfers. This restriction does not apply to servers that run MariaDB®.

Note: You can disable database prefixing by selecting Off for the Require a username prefix on names of new databases and database users setting in the SQL section of WHM’s Tweak Settings interface ( WHM » Home » Server Configuration » Tweak Settings ). For more information, read our Reserved, Invalid, and Misconfigured Usernames documentation.

It's important to remember that new users need the username and password that you enter here to log in to their accounts. All accounts require the following information: Domain — The domain name for the account (for example, example.com ). Important: You can create a user to represent a subdomain of a domain that you own. For example, if you own the example.com domain, you could assign the username.example.com subdomain to a new account for the username user. You cannot create a separate account for the www. subdomain. The system automatically removes the www. subdomain from the account name. Username — The username for the new account. The username must be unique and contain 16 characters or fewer. The username must contain only lower-case letters and numbers. The username cannot start with a number or the test string. The username’s first eight characters must be unique if you plan to use MySQL® or PostgreSQL®. This prevents issues with database prefixing and account transfers. This restriction does not apply to servers that run MariaDB®. Note: You can disable database prefixing by selecting Off for the Require a username prefix on names of new databases and database users setting in the SQL section of WHM’s Tweak Settings interface ( WHM » Home » Server Configuration » Tweak Settings ). For more information, read our Reserved, Invalid, and Misconfigured Usernames documentation. Password — The password for the new account. Re-type Password — The password you entered in the previous text box.
