Websites
The Control Panel's website tools — WordPress, the App installer, staging, redirects, maintenance mode, monitoring, statistics and logs.
The Websites group of the Control Panel holds the tools you use to build, run and watch your websites. Each website
is a domain in your account with its own folder, web/yourdomain.com/public_html. To add a website, see
Domains.
