FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, represents the most famous means of transferring web files to a hosting account. With an FTP software program that’s installed on your desktop or laptop PC, you can establish a connection to your website hosting server and copy all of the website files that you want with a few mouse clicks. You can do this using a user-friendly interface and it is as simple as dragging ‘n’ dropping the abovementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you are able to create separate accounts, each with a different level of access to your web space, so if you must provide a third party with access, for instance – a web designer, they’ll be able to access only a particular directory and won’t be able to view the remaining content or any other info, such as private details. Three prerequisites are obligatory in order to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is usually a domain or an IP, a username and a password.

FTP Accounts in Hosting

Our hosting plans will permit you to set up multiple FTP accounts with only a couple of mouse clicks from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to indicate what files and folders each account can access. There is no upper limit to the maximum number of FTP accounts that you’re allowed to set up, so you’ll be able to have as many as you need at any given moment. In case you don’t want to use a given FTP account any longer or if a designer has fulfilled their task and you do not want them to connect to the website content any longer, you can simply delete that account. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to see all currently active accounts listed alphabetically, together with different options, which you can access with one single click. You will be able to modify the password and the access path, to download an auto-configuration file, etc. We also have exhaustive help articles, which can help you administer your FTP accounts in case you have any obstacle.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

Using our custom Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to create as many FTP accounts as you would like, even different accounts that can access one and the same directory – if you want different people to be able to access the very same website content with different login details. Our semi-dedicated servers don’t include any limit on the total number of the FTP accounts that you can have at the same time, so you will be able to administer your website files and to update your Internet sites with ease. In case you want to stop the access to your content, you can change the directory that an account can access or you can delete the account with no more than a few clicks from the Control Panel. You will be able to view all the accounts and to edit any of them, if needed. For the sake of convenience, you can also download an auto-config file for different FTP software apps. In addition, we’ve got comprehensive help articles and tutorial videos, which will help you administer your FTP accounts without hassles.
