FTP, which denotes File Transfer Protocol, is among the most popular methods of exchanging files between a computer and a server. Using FTP software like FileZilla, you can make a connection to your web hosting account and drag & drop files or entire directories in either direction and the software will deal with all the rest. There are several pluses of using File Transfer Protocol, including the ability to restart an upload/download in case there’s a problem with the connection or the option to set up different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, e-mail accounts or any other info, which makes it the very best solution particularly when you have to grant a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular website building tools like Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the sites that you have created straight from them, without the need to resort to third-party software.

FTP Accounts in Shared Hosting

Each of the shared hosting plans that we’re offering will permit you to set up an unlimited number of FTP accounts, so you’ll be able to administer the content of your sites separately or to grant other people access to any Internet site in your hosting account. If you have a web design software application installed on your PC, you’ll be able to run multiple sites at once and to keep them up to date without any efforts. If you provide the login info to some other person to carry out a given task, you’ll be able to change the password for that FTP account or to delete it entirely with only a couple of mouse clicks and prevent any possibility of unauthorized access to your website content from then on. For the sake of convenience, all FTP accounts that you create will be displayed alphabetically in the corresponding section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you host your Internet sites under a semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to set up a separate FTP account for each one of them, as we haven’t limited this feature with any of our semi-dedicated plans. You can do this through the FTP section of our easy-to-navigate Hepsia Control Panel where you can also see the complete list of all the accounts that you’ve created, along with the folder that each one can access. If necessary, you’ll be able to change the password for a specific account or to modify its access path with several clicks. You can also delete an account without any effort in case you don’t need it any longer – for example, if you have hired a developer who is done with the website and you do not want them to access your files anymore. For the sake of convenience, we have created different how-to videos, that will help you manage your FTP accounts without effort in case you have never used a website hosting service previously.

FTP Accounts in VPS Hosting

With a virtual private server from our company, you’ll be given the option to create unlimited FTP accounts to access your web content. This is valid for all VPS server setups, no matter which Control Panel you’ve chosen during the server order procedure – DirectAdmin, cPanel or Hepsia. Based on your necessities, you can set up a separate FTP account for every website or several accounts with access to a particular folder – if you want to allow different users to be able to connect to that folder with their very own set of sign-in details. Even if you’ve never opened a hosting account previously or if you’ve only used a shared one, you will not have any difficulties creating, removing or modifying any FTP account on your virtual machine, as everything is done through a simple-to-work-with GUI and takes only a couple of clicks.
