                • Removing a domain from cPanel does not always delete its files.<\/li>\n
                • DNS and registration changes are handled separately from the Domains screen.<\/li>\n
                • Website files normally live in the domain’s document root.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
