I would like to be able to easily upload changes to my website. Many hosts allow you to do this using rsync. Is this possible from an inmotion shared hosting account?

Hello Gabyaratow,

Unfortunately, Rsync requires access to SSH, which is not available to shared server accounts. If you wish to have access of that nature, then you would need to upgrade the account to a VPS or Dedicated server type.

If you have any further questions, please contact technical support or leave a comment at the bottom of the page.
