SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is a language which consists of a set of commands that you issue to create, make changes to, and retrieve data from a database. It is the most common language used for accessing a database and has been in use for many years by many database vendors. Many consider it the best database language to use and it is the one employed by the MySQL database featured inside your control panel.

The MySQL Control Panel provided as part of your account is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) that works over the internet through your Web browser. This makes it very convenient for administration of Web based database applications. Setting up and managing your database will be done through the MySQL Control Panel. Please view our MySQL tutorials on creating a database, backing up a database, and restoring a database for more step-by-step information.

Due to the time consuming nature of Mysql, we are not able to provide free support. However, we will set up a MySQL database to your specifications for $30.00/hr. with an hour minimum. You may place an order for this through our Support Request Form.
