FTP (File Transfer Protocol), is one of the most widespread methods of transmitting website files between a PC and a web server. With an FTP program like FileZilla, you can make a connection to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software itself will deal with all the rest. There’re a number of pros of using FTP, among them the ability to restart an upload/download in case there’s a problem with the FTP connection and the option to set up different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can create FTP users that can connect only to particular folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, emails or other info, which makes it the ideal option when you have to provide a web designer with access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular web design apps such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the web content that you’ve created straight from them, without having to use any third-party software.

FTP Accounts in Shared Hosting

You’ll be able to set up as many FTP accounts as you need with any of the Linux shared hosting packages that we’re offering, as we have chosen not to limit this functionality. Thus, you can run multiple sites all at once or grant other individuals access to multiple directories. Once a given job has been carried out and you would not like that person to be able to access your files anymore, you can update the password associated with the FTP account in question or you can just delete that account with a few clicks and stop worrying about anyone connecting to it again. The Hepsia Control Panel, which is included with all shared hosting packages, will permit you to see the full list of the existing FTP accounts listed alphabetically. It takes only a click to administer various options for any of them – to edit the access path or the password, to download an auto-configuration file, etc.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated packages are astonishingly powerful, which makes them ideal for hosting many websites. Speaking of which, we have decided not to set a limit on the number of FTP accounts that you can set up, so you can have a different account for each website that you host on our semi-dedicated servers. All FTP accounts will be shown alphabetically in the respective section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with each semi-dedicated account. For any of them, you will be able to check the access path and to modify it, if necessary. Furthermore, you can set up an account in a client of your choosing by downloading an auto-configuration file and installing it on your personal computer, which will save you time. If you have never used a hosting account previously, you can watch our exhaustive instructional video clips, which are available in the same section of the Control Panel.

FTP Accounts in VPS Web Hosting

With a virtual private server from us, you will have the chance to set up an unlimited number of FTP accounts to access your website content. This is valid for all virtual server configurations, regardless of the Control Panel that you have chosen during the subscription process – Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel. Depending on your demands, you can create a different FTP account for each Internet site or a number of accounts with access to a specific folder – in case you wish to allow a number of users to be able to connect to that folder using their own set of log-in credentials. Even if you have never had a website hosting account before or if you have experience only with a shared one, you won’t have any problem creating, removing or modifying any FTP account on the VPS server, since everything’s done through a simple-to-navigate web interface and takes just a couple of clicks of the mouse.
