Understanding cPanel’s Pricing Changes
cPanel, a cornerstone in the web hosting management platform, has announced its fifth consecutive annual price increase. This latest adjustment, effective from January 1st, 2024, marks a nearly 9-10% hike in prices. Such consistent increases have become a challenging aspect for hosting providers and their clients. In 2023, cPanel introduced new features like Team Manager, offering enhanced management capabilities, and a product to scale websites efficiently. Looking ahead to 2024, cPanel aims to further improve its offerings with better security, server monitoring, and additional support for various operating systems.
