Freelancer question

[ccezar]

To continue the job of having my website designed, the freelancer is asking for my ftp user id and password. I don't feel safe giving up that information. Can I get some guidance and help in how to setup my site without giving my user id and password.

If your site isn't very difficult to set up, ask the freelancer to deliver you all the material and then upload it yourself. If it is complicated, give him access, and once he has finished, change your password so he won't have access anymore
