A Control Panel is a tool which is used to handle the content of an Internet hosting account. This includes, but is not limited to, files, e-mail messages, databases, statistics along with other operations executed with them. The Control Panel provides a web-based interface to handle these things and everything else associated with the web hosting service using different sections in which you can access features through menus and/or buttons. The less difficult to use a Control Panel is, the simpler it shall be for you to manage your world-wide web presence in general. In the standard case, the Control Panel is the Internet hosting account’s back office, while a different billing account is used to manage payments and domain registrations - if the company offers this particular service. Trouble tickets can be handled from the billing account or via a separate system.
