🖥️ Hosting & DirectAdmin

How to Access DirectAdmin

Where to find your DirectAdmin login link and credentials.

  1. Check your welcome email for your DirectAdmin login URL — usually yourdomain.com:2222 or a link provided directly.
  2. Log in with the username and password from the same email.
  3. If you've lost the credentials, request a reset from your client area under My Services.

Once logged in, DirectAdmin's dashboard gives you access to file management, email, databases, SSL, and application installs — see What Is DirectAdmin? on the blog for an overview of what each section does.
