Build a site with SiteBuilder Pro

Create a website without writing code using the drag-and-drop builder in cPanel, and what to know before committing a real site to it.

Build a website using the drag-and-drop editor included with your hosting. Applies to shared, reseller and Premium hosting.

Open SiteBuilder Pro in cPanel under Software.

Working with elements

The builder is drag and drop. Available elements include text, images, galleries, video embeds, maps, shapes, lines, menus and language switchers.

Action	How
Add	Drag the element onto the page
Edit	Double-click it, or right-click → Properties
Remove	Select it and press Delete, or right-click → Remove
Lock or reorder	Right-click → Lock or Order

Locking is worth using once a layout is right — it stops elements being nudged out of place while you edit around them.

Page settings

Under Settings:

SEO — page title and meta description. Fill these in; they are what search results display.
Background, Styles, Width — page appearance.
Favicon — the browser tab icon.
Google Analytics — paste your tracking ID.

Manage pages and menu entries under Navigation.

Before you commit a real site to it

A site built here is tied to this builder. There is no clean export to WordPress or to another host — moving later means rebuilding. For a brochure site that is fine. For anything you expect to grow, or to migrate, start with WordPress instead.

Also worth knowing:

No plugin ecosystem. What the builder offers is what you get.
No staging. Changes go live when you publish.
Not suitable for a shop. Use WooCommerce on WordPress.

Publishing

Publish from within the builder. It writes into your document root, so make sure you are not overwriting an existing site — see Where to upload your website files.

Set up HTTPS afterwards: Install a free SSL certificate and Force HTTPS.
