# PHPMyAdmin

For [hosting PHP](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/php-hosting) on your website, PHPMyAdmin might be the most important tool in your arsenal. It lets you effortlessly manage all of your databases on your server. Whether you use MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, or some other database storage mechanism, PHPMyAdmin lets you easily search, organize, import, export, and much more. PHPMyAdmin is also a great place to test out SQL queries. A built-in SQL editor lets you easily run advanced queries without having to log in to a command line session.
