2. Go to Account Functions >> Create a New Account or type Create a New Account in the search box and then the option will appear. Click on it.


3. Enter the following details under Domain Information:
Domain: The domain name you wish to host, like example.com
Username: After you enter a domain name, click on this field and it will automatically fill up your username or enter any other username you wish to use.
Password: Enter a password or use a password generator. Copy the password in a safe place. It will be required while accessing your newly-created account.
Email: Your email address.
Choose a Package: From the drop-down menu. You can choose a package. If there isn’t any package available, you can create it from the Add a Package option.



Under Settings:
CGI Access: Tick this to enable CGI Access.
cPanel Theme: You can leave it as it is or choose a theme you wish to use for your cPanel user account.
Locale: You can choose a language for your cPanel user account.



Under Reseller Settings:

Under DNS Settings:
Enable DKIM on this account: It is enabled by default. We recommend you to enable it.
