FTP, which denotes File Transfer Protocol, is one of the most commonly used methods for sending files between a computer system and a server. Using an FTP program like FileZilla, you can establish a connection to your hosting account and drag & drop files or whole directories in either direction and the software itself will take care of the rest. There are a number of benefits of employing File Transfer Protocol, including the option to restart an upload/download in case there is some problem with the connection or the possibility to set up different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can create FTP users that can access only certain folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, emails or any other information, which makes it the very best solution if you have to grant a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with famous web design tools like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the websites that you have created straight from them, without having to make use of any 3rd-party software.
FTP Accounts in Website Hosting
Each of the website hosting plans that we are offering will permit you to create unlimited FTP accounts, so you will be able to manage the content of your Internet sites independently or to give other people access to any website in your web hosting account. In case you’ve got a web design software application pre-installed on your home computer, you will be able to administer multiple websites at once and to keep them up to date without any efforts. If you provide the login details to another person to carry out a particular task, you will be able to edit the password for that FTP account or to remove it altogether with only a couple of clicks of the mouse and avoid any chance of unauthorized access to your website content from then on. For the sake of convenience, all FTP accounts that you set up will be displayed in alphabetical order in the corresponding section of your Hepsia Control Panel.
FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you host your sites under a semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to set up a separate FTP account for each of them, since we have not put a limit on this functionality with any of our packages. You can do this via the FTP section of our simple-to-navigate Hepsia hosting Control Panel where you can also check the complete list of all the FTP accounts that you have created, together with the folder that each one of them can access. If necessary, you will be able to modify the password for a particular account or to edit its access path with a few clicks. You can also delete an account without any effort if you no longer require it – for example, if you’ve hired a web designer who’s finished with the site and you do not want them to connect to your web files anymore. For convenience’s sake, we have prepared different how-to videos, that will help you administer your FTP accounts with no effort in case you have never used a web hosting plan previously.
FTP Accounts in VPS Hosting
The virtual private server packages that we offer will enable you to create unlimited FTP accounts to manage the content of your websites. This is valid regardless of which VPS plan you purchase and which hosting Control Panel you choose during the VPS order procedure – cPanel or Hepsia. In any case, you will acquire FTP access to the VPS server without having to install any kind of software, as an FTP server is an integral part of the basic software stack which comes with the Virtual Private Server plans by default. You can create one FTP account for every domain or sub-domain that you’ve registered or even several FTP accounts for one single folder – if you want several people to be able to connect to the content in it with their very own personal login credentials. With each of the offered Control Panels, creating, deleting or editing an FTP account will require no more than a couple of clicks of the mouse via a simple-to-use web interface.
