Welcome to Plume Host: your first 10 minutes

  • 12 people found this useful

Welcome aboard. This walkthrough covers the basics: signing into the client area, logging into cPanel, uploading your first files, and pointing a domain.

1. Sign in

Use the client area at management.plume.host with the email and password from your welcome email.

2. Open cPanel

From your dashboard, click My Services, then your active hosting plan, then Login to cPanel. No second password — SSO is wired up.

3. Upload your site

Use the cPanel File Manager or any SFTP client pointed at your cPanel hostname on port 21098. Drop files into public_html.

4. Point your domain

If you registered the domain with us, DNS is already pointed at the server. Otherwise update your registrar's nameservers to the two values shown on your hosting plan page.

5. Add an SSL

AutoSSL runs on every domain on every plan. After DNS resolves, your site will be serving HTTPS within an hour.
