FTP, which denotes File Transfer Protocol, represents the most famous method of sending web files to a hosting account. With an FTP software app that’s pre-installed on your desktop or laptop PC, you can make a connection to your website hosting server and copy all of the web files that you need with a few clicks of the mouse. This is done using a simple-to-work-with graphical interface and it is as simple as dragging and dropping the files in question. The advantage of using File Transfer Protocol is that you are able to set up separate FTP accounts, each with a different level of access to your server space, so if you have to give somebody access, for example – a designer, they’ll be able to connect only to a specific folder and won’t be able to access the remaining content or any other information, such as private details. Three things are required in order to be able to connect via FTP – a hostname, which is normally a domain name or an IP, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Web Hosting

Setting up and administering multiple FTP accounts will be quite easy with each of our Linux web hosting services. This feature isn’t restricted, so with our easy-to-navigate Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will be able to set up as many accounts as you need to manage your websites and to get your website-related tasks completed. If you hire a web developer and they are done with the website, for example, you can modify the FTP password or remove the entire FTP account with just one single click of the mouse through 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 connect to. Handy options such as modifying the path or the password and downloading an auto-configuration file for popular FTP client apps are also only a click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You’ll be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP regardless of the semi-dedicated server package that you’ve selected during the subscription process, since the FTP access is among the standard features that you’ll be able to use. All our packages include an unlimited FTP account allowance, so you can create as many FTP accounts as you like through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you will be able to manage your web content as well. All the FTP accounts will be listed in alphabetical order in the Control Panel and in case you do not need a given account anymore, you can simply remove it and prevent individuals who have used it previously from connecting to it again. The latter option is particularly handy in case you use the services of a web designer or if an IT professional exits your company and you don’t want them to connect to the web files anymore. An extensive Help repository that contains video tutorials will help you manage your FTP accounts in case you don’t possess any past experience.

FTP Accounts in VPS

The virtual private server packages that we offer will permit you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to manage the content of your websites. This is valid regardless of which plan you purchase and which Control Panel you choose during the order process – cPanel, DirectAdmin or Hepsia. In any case, you’ll acquire FTP access to the VPS server without the need to install any kind of software, as an FTP server is an integral part of the standard software stack which is included in the VPS plans by default. You can create one FTP account for every domain or sub-domain that you have registered or even different FTP accounts for a single folder – if you want a number of persons to connect to the content inside it with their own personal login credentials. With any of the available Control Panels, setting up, removing or editing an FTP account requires no more than a couple of mouse clicks through an easy-to-work-with web-based interface.
