FTP (File Transfer Protocol), is among the most widespread means of transmitting files between a computer and a server. With FTP client software such as FileZilla, you can connect to your website hosting account and drag & drop files or entire folders in both directions and the software itself will do all the rest. There are several advantages of using File Transfer Protocol, among them the ability to restart an upload/download if there is some problem with the connection and the possibility to have different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can connect only to specific folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, e-mail accounts or any other information, which makes it the ideal solution especially when you have to give a web designer access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with famous web design apps such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the web content that you’ve created directly from them, without having to make use of any third-party software.

FTP Accounts in Website Hosting

Our website hosting packages will allow you to create multiple FTP accounts with just a few clicks through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to specify what web files and folders each account can access. There is no upper limit on the maximum number of accounts that you can set up, so you can have as many as you like at any given moment. In case you don’t want to use a certain FTP account anymore or if a web designer has accomplished their job and you do not want them to access your web content any longer, you can simply delete that account. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to see all currently existing FTP accounts displayed alphabetically, along with various options, which you can access with a click. You will be able to modify the password and the access path, to download an auto-config file, and so on. We also have an elaborate Help section, which will help you manage your FTP accounts if you encounter any impediments.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You’ll be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP regardless of the package that you have chosen on the order form, since the FTP access is among the standard features that you will get. All our packages come with an unlimited FTP account allowance, so you will be able to set up as many FTP accounts as you need from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you will be able to manage your website content as well. All the accounts will be displayed alphabetically in the Control Panel and if you do not require a certain account anymore, you can just delete it and block people who have used it previously from connecting to it again. The latter functionality is particularly useful in case you use the services of a web developer or in case an IT expert leaves the firm and you don’t want them to access the website files anymore. An in-depth Help section that contains tutorial video clips will help you manage your FTP accounts if you do not have prior experience.

FTP Accounts in VPS

With a virtual private server from our company, you will have the option to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to access your website content. This is valid for all VPS server configurations, irrespective of the hosting Control Panel that you have chosen during the VPS order process – cPanel, DirectAdmin or Hepsia. Based on your necessities, you can set up a separate FTP account for each website or several FTP accounts with access to a given folder – in case you’d like to permit a number of persons to be able to access that folder with their very own set of log-in details. Even if you have never used a hosting account previously or if you have experience only with a shared one, you won’t have any problem setting up, removing or modifying any FTP account on the server, as everything’s done through an easy-to-work-with web-based interface and takes just a couple of clicks.
