In order to be accessible to visitors on the internet, every website requires web hosting. That means that every website owner requires access to the web server on which their website is hosted.
As an outcome, millions of people who aren’t experts at working with website servers are capable of running websites successfully using Control panels.
A control panel for a web server provides a graphical user interface (GUI) that makes it user-friendly for the average person.
