Deleting a site is carried out using an FTP manager or by contacting the support service of your hosting provider. Before deleting it, it is important to save all the necessary data to your computer in order to prevent the loss of important information and to have the necessary data if you need to restore the site.
Necessary
FTP client
Instructions
Step 1
Before deleting, save all the data stored on the site using the FTP manager you are using. To do this, start your program and connect to the FTP server in the same way as you did for downloading files.
Step 2
In the file manager window, move all directories to your computer. Wait until the download of data from the server is finished.
Step 3
Save a dump of the data table if you used MySQL on your site and used the engine to manage the site. To do this, go to phpmyadmin by going to the address provided by the hoster after the registration procedure and entering the required data to access database management.
Step 4
Go to the "Import" tab of the table manager interface. Select the type of file you want to use for saving, as well as your preferred character encoding. Click Load and select a location to save the MySQL memory dump on your computer.
Step 5
Go to the control panel of your hosting account and check if all the necessary data has been saved by you. If necessary, download a backup copy of your site from the server to your computer using the corresponding option in the control panel.
Step 6
Optionally, you can also save the php.ini configuration file to remember the server configuration for use on another hosting.
Step 7
Delete all files from the htdocs folder of your resource using FTP. After deleting, contact your hosting support service with the requirement to close the account you are using. The site has been removed.
Step 8
If you bought a domain for your site, go to the control panel and unlink the Name Server in the appropriate section. To do this, simply erase the entered data, and then save the changes made.
