FTP, which stands for File Transfer Protocol, is among the most famous means of transmitting files between a computer and a server. With an FTP software program like FileZilla, you can establish a connection to your website hosting account and drag & drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software will deal with the rest. There’re a number of pros of employing FTP, among them the option to restart an upload/download in case there is some problem with the FTP connection or the possibility to create different FTP accounts. Thanks to 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 any other info, which makes it the very best solution if you have to grant a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular applications such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the website content that you have created directly from them, without the need to resort to any 3rd-party software.

FTP Accounts in Hosting

You will be able to set up as many FTP accounts as you like with any of the hosting plans that we offer, as we have chosen not to restrict this functionality. In this way, you can maintain numerous sites all at once or grant other people access to multiple directories. Once a given task has been accomplished and you don’t want that person to be able to access your files any longer, you can modify the password for the particular FTP account or you can just delete that account with several mouse clicks and quit worrying about someone accessing it once again. The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all hosting packages, will allow you to check the full list of the active FTP accounts displayed alphabetically. It takes just a click to administer various options for any of them – to change the access path or the password, to download an auto-configuration file, etc.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

Using our custom-built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to set up as many FTP accounts as you like, even separate accounts with access to the exact same folder – if you wish several individuals to be able to access the exact same website content with totally different login details. Our semi-dedicated hosting plans do not have any limit on the total number of the FTP accounts that you can have at a time, so you will be able to manage your web files and to update your Internet sites without effort. If you wish to restrict the access to your website content, you can change the directory that an account can access or you can delete the account entirely with no more than a few clicks of the mouse through the Control Panel. You will be able to see all the FTP accounts and to modify any of them, if necessary. For the sake of convenience, you can also download an auto-configuration file for several FTP software applications. Furthermore, we have prepared detailed step-by-step articles and how-to video clips, which will help you administer your FTP accounts seamlessly.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

The VPS server packages offered by our company will permit you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to manage the content of your websites. This is valid regardless of which Virtual Private Server plan you order and which Control Panel you choose during the VPS order process – cPanel, Hepsia or DirectAdmin. In any case, you will have FTP access to the server without having to install any software, since an FTP server is an essential part of the basic software stack that is included in the Virtual Private Server plans by default. You can set up one FTP account for each domain or sub-domain that you own or even different FTP accounts for one single directory – in case you want different individuals to be able to connect to the web content in it with their very own set of sign-in credentials. With any of the Control Panels, setting up, removing or modifying an FTP account will require no more than a few clicks of the mouse through an easy-to-use web interface.
