Deploy a high-performance Cloud VPS and install cPanel & WHM yourself. AMD Ryzen processors, DDR5 RAM, NVMe SSD storage, and a blazing 10 Gbps port — available in 35+ global locations.
cPanel is the world's most widely deployed Linux web hosting control panel — first released in 1996 and now powering millions of servers globally. It provides a browser-based graphical interface for managing web hosting accounts, domains, email, databases, and server configuration.
WHM (Web Host Manager) is cPanel's server-level companion. Where cPanel manages individual hosting accounts, WHM gives you full control over the entire server — creating and managing multiple cPanel accounts, configuring packages, monitoring resources, and managing DNS clusters.
On a Host4Fun Cloud VPS, you get a fully isolated virtual machine with dedicated AMD Ryzen CPU, DDR5 RAM, and NVMe storage — the ideal foundation for a stable, high-performance cPanel server.
cPanel handles end-user hosting: files, email, databases, SSL, and backups. WHM handles the server layer: accounts, packages, DNS zones, and resource limits. Both run together on your single Cloud VPS.
Host4Fun delivers the Cloud VPS. You SSH in, purchase your license from cpanel.net, run the installer, and have a fully operational cPanel hosting server within 30–40 minutes.
A comprehensive toolset covering every aspect of web hosting management — files, databases, email, SSL, DNS, and security.
Upload, edit, delete, and manage all website files directly in your browser. No FTP client required. Drag-and-drop uploads and in-browser code editing included.
Create and manage databases via phpMyAdmin or cPanel's wizard. Supports MySQL 8 and MariaDB — essential for WordPress, Joomla, and all PHP applications.
Create unlimited email accounts, forwarders, auto-responders, and mailing lists. Full spam filtering and webmail via RoundCube and Horde included.
AutoSSL automatically installs and renews free Let's Encrypt certificates across all domains. Manual certificate management available via the SSL/TLS Manager.
Full account backups, incremental backups, and restore wizards built-in. Compatible with JetBackup, R1Soft, and other third-party backup solutions.
Awstats, Webalizer, and raw access logs provide detailed traffic insights. Error logs, cron job management, and resource usage monitoring in one place.
Full DNS management: A, CNAME, MX, TXT, and SRV records. Create private nameservers for your hosting brand directly from WHM.
Install WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, and 400+ applications in seconds with automatic update management and staging environments.
cPHulk brute-force protection, IP blocker, ModSecurity WAF, SSL manager, two-factor auth, and CSF firewall integration for complete server hardening.

We provide the infrastructure. You get the control. Here's why hosting operators trust Host4Fun as their cPanel foundation.
Our Cloud VPS runs on KVM — the same hypervisor used by major cloud providers. Unlike OpenVZ, KVM gives cPanel the fully isolated kernel it needs for stable operation, custom kernel modules, and proper security tooling.
Every Host4Fun Cloud VPS node runs on AMD Ryzen CPUs delivering exceptional single-core and multi-core performance. Dedicated vCPU cores — not oversold timeshares — for consistent cPanel responsiveness under load.
cPanel databases and email processing are I/O-intensive. Our NVMe SSD delivers 5–10x faster read/write speeds than standard SATA drives — directly improving hosted sites' load times and database queries.
Enterprise-grade DDoS mitigation is included on every Cloud VPS at no extra cost — critical for hosting servers serving multiple client websites and email accounts that could be targeted at any time.
Your Cloud VPS is provisioned automatically within minutes of payment. Select AlmaLinux 8 or 9, SSH in immediately, and begin your cPanel installation — no waiting queues, no manual review.
Our support team is available around the clock for Cloud VPS-level issues including networking, OS reinstalls, and connectivity. cPanel-specific support is handled via cPanel's official documentation.
Follow these steps after receiving your Cloud VPS credentials. Installation takes 20–40 minutes. Have your cPanel license key ready from cpanel.net.
