How to Check Folder Sizes in cPanel (4 Steps)


Open your Internet browser. Enter the URL for your website into the browser address field, adding a forward slash and then 'cpanel.' You will see a window prompt asking for your user name and password. If you do not have this information, contact your webhost -- most webhosts provide these credentials in a welcome package you would have received when you initially paid for your webhost package. Entering your credentials will gain you access to the control panel menu of your website.
Scroll down through the cPanel menu to find the 'Files' section. Beneath this section, click 'File Manager.' Select the 'Home' directory and click 'Go.'
View the list of files and folders in the home directory of your website. You will see a detailed list of each file and folder under the 'Name' column of the table. To the right of each file and folder, you will see a 'Size' column with the size of each item listed in the table.
Double-click on any file or folder to open it. You can then see the size of each item inside the file or folder by looking at the 'Size' column.

How to Set Up a VPS Host (8 Steps)


Select your VPS service. Follow the link in Resources below to browse hosting packages and prices. Select a service with a plan that suits your individual needs.
Click on the 'Sign Up' link on your chosen service's website. Fill out the forms and payment options as prompted. When you are done, wait for the service to process your application. When the service has created your account and virtual private server, it will send you an email with your login credentials.
Navigate to your chosen service's website, click 'My Account' and log in to your account with your user name and password. The first time you log in, the service will ask you to make some choices to configure your server. You will be prompted to make these selections after you log in.
Select your kernel. Most VPS services will offer a variety of Linux kernels to install on your server. If you know which kernel you want to run, select it. If you are unsure, choosing the Ubuntu kernel is a safe choice.
Select the size of your first partition. When you signed up for the VPS service, you chose a plan with a certain amount of disk space. You can choose to dedicate all of this space to a single partition. If you want to host multiple websites from your VPS, you can also choose to make a smaller first partition and then create more partitions from the remaining space.
Write down the IP address of each of your VPS partitions. These will be displayed on your account page. If you created only one partition, then you will have only one IP address.
Open a program on your computer capable of running the Secure Shell (SSH). If you are on Linux or Mac OS X, then this will be your Terminal application. If you are on Windows, download PuTTY (see Resources).
Type 'ssh root@your-partition's-ip-address' into your SSH-capable application, and press 'Enter' to access your VPS. Type in your account's password when prompted. After this, you will be logged in to your VPS, ready to install your server software and configure it to your needs.
