Question About DirectAdmin

[JimKolgen]

Hello All,
I just want a clarification about what does DirectAdmin CP do exactly.
Let us say I bought a domain name, and I bought DirectAdmin CP. Do I need to buy also a hosting plan? or does the DirectAdmin CP works as a hosting plan?

I can't get it %100

You can use DirectAdmin only on VPS or dedicated server. DirectAdmin is a control panel, which used for hosting administration.

For example, let us say that I bought a domain
What do I need for it, to get it started and live using DirectAdminCP?

DS or VDS and DirectAdmin CP + The Domain? Is that It?
What do you think is better, DS or VDS?

Yes, you're right Take a look at http://wiki.openvz.org/VPS_vs_Dedicated

Also, VPS is more used for small web-hosting companies.

If all you want is a hosting plan for one domain running under the DirectAdmin control panel you should probably just find a hosting company who uses DirectAdmin.

Which is most of us here .
