The *Sitejet Builder* interface is fully integrated with the [Sitejet Website Builder (Content Management System)](https://help.sitejet.io/article/536-overview-website-builder-cm) website. You can use the Sitejet Website Builder (CMS) to create and design a website for your domain. Then, you can publish it with your cPanel account. To create a website for your domain, perform the following steps: 1. Navigate to the [*Sitejet Builder*](https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/domains/sitejet-builder) interface (*cPanel » Home » Domains » Sitejet Builder*). The *Sitejet Builder* interface will appear. 2. Click *Build with Sitejet* for the domain. The [*Choose Template*](https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/domains/sitejet-builder/#the-choose-template-interface) interface will appear. 3. Once you have chosen a template and personalized your website in the Sitejet Website Builder (CMS), click *Publish* ( ![media\_Create%20a%20Website/RotrZX7zKbe4q9-sitejet-publish.png](media_Create%20a%20Website/RotrZX7zKbe4q9-sitejet-publish.png) 1. ) . The system will redirect you to the *Sitejet Builder* interface and will publish your design to the domain’s document root directory. * If your domain’s [document root](https://docs.cpanel.net/knowledge-base/cpanel-product/cpanel-glossary/#document-root) already contains files, the system will prompt you to confirm publication. Publication will delete **all files and directories** in your domain’s document root directory. * If the publication process will cause your cPanel account to exceed its [disk quota](https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/the-cpanel-interface/the-cpanel-interface/#statistics-details) , the system will prompt you to free up additional space before you can publish your Sitejet website. For more information, read our [*Sitejet Builder*](https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/domains/sitejet-builder) interface documentation. # Create a WordPress website !! Note: !! The [*Onboarding Assistant*](https://docs.cpanel.net/knowledge-base/cpanel-product/onboarding-assistant) automatically creates a WordPress website for the new cPanel account if the user selects the *WordPress* option. The *WP Toolkit* interface allows you to quickly install WordPress and configure it. To create a website with WordPress, perform the following steps: 1. Navigate to cPanel’s [*WP Toolkit*](https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/domains/wp-toolkit-for-cpanel/) interface (*cPanel » Home » Domains » WP Toolkit*). The *WP Toolkit* interface will appear. 2. Click *Install WordPress*. The *Install WordPress* sidebar will appear. 3. Enter a title for the website. 4. WP Toolkit will suggest a username, password, and email address for the administrator account. Make any changes as needed. 5. Click *Install*. This will install a basic WordPress installation on your site. You can add themes, plugins, and other enhancements through the *WP Toolkit* interface or the *Dashboard* interface. To open the WordPress *Dashboard*, click *Log in*. * For more information about the WP Toolkit, read our [WP Toolkit for cPanel](https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/domains/wp-toolkit-for-cpanel/) documentation. * For more information about WordPress, go to [The Wordpress website](https://wordpress.org/) . * For video tutorials about the WP Toolkit, watch our [WP Toolkit for cPanel Quick Guide](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZk46idJS6s7_L6jowxB_hG6iiQJJJNTt) . # Create a placeholder page with Site Publisher To set up a placeholder for your account, perform the following steps: 1. Navigate to cPanel’s [*Site Publisher*](https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/domains/site-publisher/) interface (*cPanel » Home » Domains » Site Publisher*). 2. Select the *Domain* for which you want to create a placeholder page. !! Note:\ The list of domains shown in this interface includes your account’s main domain and subdomains. It does not include parked (or “alias”) domains.
