After you have ordered and paid for your chosen cPanel web hosting plan, the system automatically activates the service, allowing you to start using it immediately.
During the domain transfer or registration process, your cPanel web hosting will already be up and running. You can log into the cPanel interface as a user and begin uploading your website content right away. The web hosting service will remain active until the end of the period you selected (typically one year). Rackhost will send a notification to the email address you provided in the admin interface to remind you before the service expires. To continue using the service, simply pay the renewal fee, and the cPanel web hosting period will be extended automatically.
