This is probably a *dumb* question but I've looked every where (including GoDaddy FAQ) and can't find exactly what I am looking for. I need my cPanel username for the sites I am hosting, but I don't know what that is! I host with GoDaddy so I was thinking it may be the MySQL database name but that's not right. I know there is a simple answer for this and it's probably right under my nose but I would appreciate anyone pointing me in the right direction! Thanks!
a client I had used godaddy, and they didn't have a cpanel I hated dealing with them.. maybe they have differant packages.. he had 100 sites hosted by them
you have to log into godaddy my account hosting account list then click open next your domain name Hope that is what you are looking for
The above is correct. That will allow you to do everything except view your stats. The information was also in one of the many emails they sent.
Another easy way to usually figure out your username is just use the first 8 letters of your domain as cPanel takes the first 8 letters of your domain and uses it as your username for the account unless otherwise specified when creating the account.
Yes mostly its first 8 letters of your domain name, if that does not help you need to contact there Support and ask for your Cpanel username. Just one question they did not send you Welcome email with Cpanel login details ? normally such details are email to the customer.
You do realize that this thread is 11 yrs old.... and your advice is bad as Godaddy do not use cPanel GoDaddy does not use cpanel !!!!... did you not see all the comments above to that effect?
They seem to be using cPanel... https://www.godaddy.com/help/logging-in-to-cpanel-shared-hosting-8884 https://www.godaddy.com/help/set-up-your-account-16009 I believe last time I checked their control panel, using a clients account to migrate them, they just use a heavily modified version of cPanel.
