Account Preferences
See your hosting account's details at a glance and reach every setting that belongs to you from one page.
Account Preferences shows the details of the hosting account you have selected, such as its username, plan and name servers, and links to each preference page. Use it when you need a detail like your home folder for an FTP app, or the name servers to give your registrar. Every plan includes this page.
