To Set Up a Database for Your Website

1. Log in to your Account Manager.
2. Click Web Hosting.
3. Next to the hosting account you want to use, click Launch.
4. In the Databases section of the Hosting Control Center, click the icon corresponding to the database you want to create.
5. Click Create Database.
6. Complete the fields. If you need more information about DSN or ASP Schema, click here.

   NOTE: If you need to Allow Direct Database Access, but do not see the field, contact customer support. Direct Database Access is only available on paid hosting plans. If you are not sure what Direct Database Access is, see Why connect remotely to hosting databases?.

7. Verify the settings and click OK.

It takes up to 1 hour to create a database.

Once the database is created, you can click the Pencil icon next to the database to find more information, such as its host name.
