FTP is an abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol – a rather popular method of exchanging web files between a computer and a web server. Using an FTP program like CuteFTP or FileZilla, you can connect to the server and view its content in one pane, while the files on your computer will be displayed in another pane within the main program window. All you have to do to send files or entire folders in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is used by a lot of users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each one can be restricted to access just one folder on the server, so a designer, for instance, can do their task without accessing any other directory in the hosting account. Plus, the presence of different FTP accounts will also permit you to create multiple websites using web design apps like Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their specific folders on the server.

FTP Accounts in Shared Hosting

Creating and administering numerous FTP accounts will be incredibly easy with any of our shared hosting. This feature is not restricted, so with our easy-to-work-with Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll be able to set up as many accounts as you have to, in order to administer your websites and to get your web-related tasks completed. In case you hire a designer and they’re done with the website, for instance, you can edit the FTP password or remove the entire FTP account with just one single mouse click via the Control Panel. For convenience’s sake, you will be able to view a list of all the FTP accounts that you have created and the directories that they can access. Useful functions such as updating the path or the password and downloading an auto-config file for popular FTP client programs are also only a mouse click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You’ll be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP irrespective of the package that you’ve chosen on the order form, since the FTP access is among the default features that you’ll be able to make use of. All our packages include an unlimited FTP account quota, so you’ll be able to set up as many accounts as you want from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you will be able to manage your web content as well. All the accounts will be listed alphabetically in the Control Panel and in case you do not need a particular account anymore, you can simply remove it and prevent people who have used it previously from accessing it again. This option is particularly useful if you use the services of a developer or if an IT person leaves the firm and you do not want them to access the web files any longer. An in-depth Help library that contains video tutorials will help you manage your FTP accounts if you do not possess past experience.

FTP Accounts in VPS Web Hosting

The virtual private server plans offered by our company will enable you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to administer the content of your Internet sites. This is valid irrespective of which Virtual Private Server plan you purchase and which Control Panel you choose during the server order procedure – cPanel or Hepsia. In all cases, you will be given FTP access to the virtual server without having to install any kind of software, as an FTP server is an integral part of the software stack that comes with the Virtual Private Server plans by default. You can create one FTP account for each domain or sub-domain that you have or even multiple accounts for a single folder – in case you want several persons to access the website content inside it with their own sign-in details. With each of the available Control Panels, creating, removing or editing an FTP account will require no more than several mouse clicks through a user-friendly web interface.
