## Configuring nameservers

After purchasing shared website hosting if you haven't bought a domain from us you'll need to change the nameservers of the domain. Please check your emails with our nameservers as our nameservers can vary.

## Managing your web site with cPanel

All hosting plans come with cPanel. You can access this via the client portal then clicking the purchased service

## Accessing your account

You can access your cPanel account via the following methods:

## Setting up e-mail

Now you have a domain, It's always best to send and receive emails via your domain. In cPanel search "Email Accounts" then you're able to create a new email address, View & send emails
