FTP, which is an abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol, represents one of the most commonly used methods for uploading and downloading files between a PC and a web server. With FTP client software such as FileZilla, you can establish a connection to your web hosting account and drag & drop files or entire folders in both directions and the software will cope with all the rest. There’re a number of benefits of using File Transfer Protocol, among them the ability to restart an upload/download in case there’s a problem with the FTP connection and the ability to use 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, email accounts or other information, which makes it the perfect solution especially if you have to provide a web designer with access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with popular website building applications such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the sites that you’ve created straight from them, without having to resort to 3rd-party software.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Hosting

Any of the cloud hosting plans that we offer will enable you to set up unlimited FTP accounts, so you will be able to administer the content of your sites independently or to provide other persons with access to any Internet site in your website hosting account. In case you have a web design software application installed on your home PC, you will be able to maintain multiple sites at once and to keep them up to date without any effort. In case you give the login credentials to some other person to perform a specific task, you’ll be able to change the password for that FTP account or to remove it entirely with just a few clicks and avoid any risk of unsolicited access to your web content in the future. For convenience’s sake, all FTP accounts that you set up will be displayed alphabetically in the corresponding section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

With our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll be able to create as many FTP accounts as you would like, even different accounts with access to the same directory – if you would like several users to be able to access the very same web content with completely different login credentials. Our semi-dedicated hosting plans do not involve a restriction on the total number of the FTP accounts that you can have at a time, so you will be able to administer your website files and to modify your websites with no effort. If you’d like to restrict the access to your website content, you can alter the directory that an account can connect to or you can delete the account altogether with no more than a couple of mouse clicks via the Control Panel. You’ll be able to check all the FTP accounts and to modify any of them, if needed. For the sake of convenience, you can also download an auto-config file for various FTP software applications. In addition, we’ve got comprehensive help articles and how-to video clips, which will help you manage your FTP accounts in a seamless way.
