Hosting
Features
Master FTP Account:
This is your master FTP login
for updating your website.
Additional FTP
Accounts:
Additional FTP accounts are most commonly used to give others access to an account for the
purpose of sharing a web development project, without giving them control over the entire Website. By restricting
their access to their home directory, you can ensure they can only modify files within this particular
space.
SSH Server Access:
SSH server access allows you to login directly to the server hosting your Website. You can manipulate your Website
files using Linux commands. This feature is for advanced users.
Database
Features
MySQL 5 Databases:
MySQL databases allow you to store important information in a format that can easily be read by other programs and
systems. You can use MySQL databases to store customer information or as the backend for a shopping cart
system
MySQL Web Interface:
Manage your MySQL
databases online using phpMyAdmin, an easy to use web based interface.
Sub Domains:
Sub domains allow you to have
new web addresses for separate areas of your Website. For example you could have support.yourdomain.co.uk and point
this at your yourdomain.co.uk/support/ directory. You can use sub domains in conjunction with additional FTP
accounts, creating in effect simple hosting accounts with a sub domain and an additional FTP account.
