All hosting accounts are managed via a CP and regardless of the brand of the latter, you can always find a File Manager tool, which enables you to look at the files which you have uploaded inside the website hosting account and to execute basic operations with them, like moving, copying or deleting. Based on the particular tool, there may be more complex functions too, including management of permissions and archives. Some Control Panels are simpler to work with than others and so are their File Manager sections. Due to the fact that this is the main tool you'll employ to control your files, it is important to check in advance what options it includes and if it will appeal to you, because a hard-to-use File Manager could be a burden and can make managing your presence online more complicated.
