How do I access my database?
For direct access to the database of your WordPress, we use phpMyAdmin, a standard PHP-based tool for accessing and working with a MySQL database. It can perform various tasks such as creating, modifying or deleting databases, tables, fields or rows.
How can I upload & download files?
Actually you can easily upload files via WordPress dashboard, but we also provide you SFTP access to upload & download your files. Secure FTP, unlike standard File Transfer Protocol (FTP), SFTP encrypt commands and data both, preventing passwords and sensitive information from being transmitted in the clear over a network. You just need to install a SFTP client, we recommend you to use FileZilla.

Forget the troublesome hosting control panel. We do everything for you. Just log in to your WordPress and start your blogging! It is incredibly easy to use and ready to be up and running out of the box. You have full usage of your WordPress back-end without permissions-based restrictions.
