Getting Started with Your Hosting Account

40 views Published 25 Mar 2026 Updated 27 Mar 2026

Welcome to Gravity Host

Your hosting account is ready to use. Here's how to get started:

1. Log in to cPanel

From your dashboard, click the cPanel button next to your domain. This logs you straight in — no separate password needed.

2. Set up your website

In cPanel, look for WordPress Toolkit or Softaculous to install WordPress, OpenCart, or 400+ other apps in one click.

3. Set up email

In cPanel, go to Email Accounts to create addresses like you@yourdomain.com. Access them at webmail.yourdomain.com or through cPanel.

4. Point your domain

If your domain is registered elsewhere, update its nameservers to:

  • ns1.gravityhost.co.uk
  • ns2.gravityhost.co.uk

DNS changes can take up to 24 hours to propagate.

5. Upload files

Use cPanel's File Manager or connect via FTP/SFTP. Your website files go in public_html.
