How to Install Vesta Control Panel on Ubuntu 16.04 / CentOS 7 VPS

VestaCP is one of the most popular control panels for VPS. This control panel is highly recommended for anyone who is in the process of learning to understand server settings. It’s also recommended for the inexperienced beginner to manage the shell because it makes it easier for them to do web hosting management (via panel).
