Getting started with web hosting
Your hosting plan gives you everything you need to run a website — from file storage and a database to email and an SSL certificate.
What's included
- Disk space for your website files
- MySQL databases
- PHP support (multiple versions selectable in Plesk)
- FTP access to upload and manage files
- Free SSL certificate via Let's Encrypt
Finding your credentials
All your access details — FTP login, FTP password, Plesk login, and Plesk password — are available on your service page under Access details.
Pointing your domain
To use your own domain with the hosting, update your DNS records at your domain registrar:
- Log in to your domain registrar's control panel.
- Find the DNS settings for your domain.
- Add an A record pointing to the Server IP address shown under Access details on your service page.
DNS changes can take up to 24 hours to propagate worldwide.
