Why initialise your shared hosting account?

If you decide to completely redesign your website, you will almost certainly need to initialise your entire shared hosting account. In order to successfully reset your shared hosting account, you'll need to complete several steps so that you can put it back to the way it was on the first day. The steps are as follows:

• Initialise your MySQL database: Deletes all the data in your database.
• Initialise your e-mails: Deletes all your e-mails and the contents of your various mailboxes.
