Introduction: Why Do You Need a Website Control Panel?
Imagine you’ve bought a piece of land and built a house on it (your website). Now you need to manage the house: connect electricity (domains), install plumbing (databases), set up security (SSL certificates), maintain order (files), and even let tenants in (FTP users). You could do all of this manually, but it’s complex, time-consuming, and requires specialized skills.
This is where website control panels come in. These are graphical web interfaces that significantly simplify the process of managing your web server and all the components needed to run a website. Instead of entering complex terminal commands, you simply click buttons and fill out forms in a user-friendly browser interface.

There’s often a need to host a website, be it a personal blog, a test project, or a small service, directly on a home computer. This is convenient, economical, and provides full control. However, many face the problem of not having a “white” (public) IP address from their internet provider, making direct external access virtually impossible. And even if they do, it’s often dynamic, requiring constant updates via DDNS.
Don’t worry! Today, we’ll dive into the world of network technologies and show you how to overcome this limitation and publish your website online using a powerful and free tool from Cloudflare – Cloudflare Tunnel (formerly known as Argo Tunnel). You won’t need a white IP, port forwarding on your router, or other complex configurations!

In the previous article, we talked about domain names — your digital address on the internet. Now it’s time to build the “home” itself — your website. There are many ways to do this, and today we’ll start with the most beginner-friendly option: website builders.
Website Builders: A Quick Start for Everyone
Website builders like Tilda, Wix, or Tinkoff’s Site Builder are online platforms that let you create a site without any programming skills. You simply drag and drop ready-made blocks (text, images, galleries, buttons) into place, then edit their content and style. It’s a great option if you want a nice-looking, functional website quickly without diving into technical complexities.
