Getting started

The welcome wizard after your first sign-in — point your domain, create a mailbox, switch on SSL, put your site online and set up backups.

After your first sign-in, your overview shows Set up your hosting: a few short steps that check themselves. Click Start (or Continue) to open them.

Where: Control Panel › Support › Getting started

The steps

Step What to do
Point your domain At the company where you bought the domain, change its nameservers to the ones shown — or keep your DNS and add an A record for your domain and for www pointing to the IP shown. The step shows what the DNS says now; click Check again after a change.
Create a mailbox Opens Email accounts.
Switch on SSL Once your domain points here, click Issue it now, or wait: it follows by itself within an hour.
Put your website online Install WordPress, or Upload files in the File Manager.
Set up backups Your account is backed up every night. Open Backups to choose your own schedule or download a copy.

A step that checks itself ticks off on its own. For the others click Mark as done, or Skip a step you don't need; Undo opens it again.

Close it and open it again

Click Not now on the overview, or Close the wizard on its page. Open it again any time under Getting started in the menu, and click Show on my overview again to bring the card back.

Note: your host may have switched the wizard off, or chosen fewer steps.
