When you have a cPanel shared hosting account for your website then this is the utility which makes you able to provide the email addresses at which you want to receive all the updates and messages from your web hosting server. These provided email addresses works as the main communication point with you and used for informing you any new information about your website and its updates. It is always recommended to use an email address which is not of your website, because it will not face any problem when your website’s emails would stop working.

Have look at the following steps for configuring these preferences.

• In the first text field you should enter the email address which you would like to be used while making contact from web server to you.
• Second text box is provided for entering other optional extra email if first email failed to receive the messages.
• Here you will find 3 check boxes which will decide when server should contact you by sending the email. Following are their descriptions.

1. Your disk quota is almost full :- When your website is close to reach the maximum disk space provided to it then it may cause for failure in modifying the current files and addition of any new files to the website, after receiving this message you need to delete any unwanted old files or upgrade your hosting account with more disk space.
2. Your bandwidth is reaching its limit :- When your website is visited a large number of visitors than normally expected then you face bandwidth issue. Similar to disk space, bandwidth is the resource which is provided with certain limitation for your website, and if it exceeded than the provided limitation then your website will not remain accessible anymore. This type of the problem occurs mostly at month ends and to fix it you need to upgrade your web hosting account with more bandwidth resource.
3. Your email accounts approach the quota :- This notification shows that email address provided by you are about to reach to their maximum limitation of the disk space allocated to it. For resolving this issue you need to delete any unnecessary mails of upgrade your account with more disk space.

IP address is one unique number of 32-bit which is assigned to website which resides on the internet. General users of internet identify and remember a website by it’s domain name but logically it need to have a IP address to be found by a internet user. As many of us know there are main two types of IP Addresses as Static IP address and Shared IP address.

Static IP Address -
When a website holds its unique IP which is not shared by any other website and just limited to itself only is called Static IP. The major cause of using a Static IP is, one can have SSL encryption process which is limited to a Static IP only. Having a Static IP make your data more secure which is transferred throughout the Internet because of being encrypted to avoid any kind of interception. When a website needs anonymous type of FTP access which makes it possible to download the data for any user, in such cases also that particular Website needs a Static IP. These type of IPs are mostly used by Dedicated Hosting Services customers.

Shared IP Address -
When a single IP address is shared by multiple websites then it is called a Shared IP. Today Corers of websites exists on the internet so allocation of a unique single IP address to each website is not possible and practical from the point of view of web hosting services providers and IP registrar, specifically when that particular website has no need for it. To avoid such type of shortage of IP addresses Shared IP is allocated to multiple websites which do not require a Static IP. These type of IPs are mostly allocated to those webmasters who go for Shared Hosting Services.
