FTP denotes File Transfer Protocol – a quite popular way to transfer web files between a home computer and a server. With an FTP client program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can connect to the server and see its content in one pane, while the files on your PC will be shown in another pane within the program window. All you need to do to send files or entire directories in either direction is to mark them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. FTP is preferred by many users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each of them can be limited to connect to just one single directory on the server, so a designer, for example, can carry out their job without being able to see any other content in the hosting account. Plus, the presence of different FTP accounts will also enable you to build multiple sites with web design applications like Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their specific directories on the server.

FTP Accounts in Shared Website Hosting

Each of the shared website hosting plans that we are offering will allow you to create unlimited FTP accounts, so you’ll be able to administer the content of your websites independently or to provide other people with access to any site in your website hosting account. If you have a web design software application installed on your home computer, you’ll be able to manage numerous websites simultaneously and to update them effortlessly. If you provide the login information to some other person to perform a given task, you’ll be able to change the password for that FTP account or to remove it completely with only a couple of mouse clicks and avoid any possibility of unauthorized access to your website content in the future. For the sake of convenience, all FTP accounts that you create will be shown alphabetically in the respective section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you host your Internet sites under a semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to create a different FTP account for each one of them, since we haven’t restricted this service with any of our semi-dedicated packages. You can accomplish this through the FTP section of our easy-to-work-with Hepsia Control Panel where you can also see the complete list of all the accounts that you have created, along with the folder that each one can connect to. If needed, you’ll be able to change the password for a particular account or to change its access path with several clicks. You can also delete an account with no effort in case you do not require it any longer – for instance, if you have hired a web developer who’s done with the Internet site and you don’t want them to access your website files any longer. For the sake of convenience, we’ve prepared a number of instructional videos, that will help you administer your FTP accounts effortlessly if you’ve never used a web hosting package before.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

With a VPS server from our company, you will have the option to create unlimited FTP accounts to access your website content. This is valid for all VPS configurations, no matter the Control Panel that you have picked during the signup process – DirectAdmin, cPanel or Hepsia. Depending on your demands, you can create a separate FTP account for every website or several accounts with access to a specific folder – if you’d like to permit several individuals to access that folder using their own set of login credentials. Even if you have never had a website hosting account previously or if you’ve got experience only with a shared one, you won’t have any problems creating, removing or editing any FTP account on your virtual server, since everything is done via an easy-to-navigate GUI and takes only a few clicks.
