Signing Up New Customers for Your Hosting Services

This chapter focuses on client accounts that you will create for your customers.

If you need to create a domain administrator's account for a site, assign permissions and allocate resources, see the section Setting Up Hosting Account for a Web Site.

If you need to create an e-mail user account, see the section Creating Mailboxes.

To accommodate a new customer:

  1. Go to Home > Clients group title menu > Create Client Account.
  2. Specify the contact and billing information. Contact name, login name and password are mandatory fields.
  3. If you have predefined user account templates, you can select the template you need from the Create user account based on a template menu. If you did not create any custom template, then the default template will be used.
  4. Click Next >>.

  9. Allocate IP addresses to the customer. Select the addresses you need from the Vacant IPs box and click Add >>. Keep in mind that e-commerce site hosting customers need dedicated (exclusive) IP addresses: one dedicated IP address per one site.
  10. Click Finish.

You can now send the URL to control panel and login credentials to your customer.
