FTP (short for File Transfer Protocol), represents one of the most famous methods for uploading and downloading web files between a PC and a web server. With an FTP client program like FileZilla, you can connect to your web hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire folders in both directions and the software will do the rest. There are a number of advantages of employing File Transfer Protocol, among them the option to restart an upload/download if there is some problem with the FTP connection or the possibility to set up different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, email accounts or any other information, which makes it the ideal solution especially when you have to provide a web designer with access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with famous applications such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the Internet sites that you have created straight from them, without the need to use 3rd-party software.
FTP Accounts in Shared Web Hosting
Setting up and managing multiple FTP accounts will be quite easy with each of our shared web hosting. This feature isn’t limited, so using our time and effort saving Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to set up as many accounts as you need to administer your sites and to get your website-related tasks accomplished. If you hire a developer and they’re done with the site, for example, you can update the FTP password or remove the whole FTP account with just one single mouse click from the Control Panel. For the sake of convenience, you’ll be able to view a list of all the accounts that you’ve set up and what directories they can connect to. Handy options such as updating the path or the password and downloading an auto-configuration file for commonly used FTP software apps are also only one click away.
FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
You’ll be able to connect to your semi-dedicated server account via FTP regardless of the semi-dedicated server package that you have chosen upon registration, as the FTP access is one of the standard features that you will be able to make use of. All our plans include an unlimited FTP account allowance, so you’ll be able to create as many accounts as you need through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you will be able to manage your web content too. All the FTP accounts will be shown in alphabetical order in the Control Panel and in case you do not require a given account any longer, you can simply delete it and prevent people who have used it before from accessing it again. This functionality is particularly useful in case you use the services of a web developer or if an IT specialist leaves the company and you don’t want them to connect to the web files any longer. An in-depth Help library that includes tutorial video clips will help you administer your FTP accounts in case you do not have any prior experience.
FTP Accounts in VPS Servers
With a VPS server from us, you will get the ability to create unlimited FTP accounts to access your web content. This is valid for all VPS server plans, irrespective of which hosting Control Panel you’ve chosen during the server order procedure – Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel. Depending on your necessities, you can create a separate FTP account for each website or several FTP accounts with access to a certain folder – if you wish to allow a number of people to be able to connect to that folder with their own personal login credentials. Even if you have never had a website hosting account before or if you’ve got experience only with a shared one, you will not have any problems creating, removing or editing any FTP account on your server, since everything’s done via a user-friendly web-based interface and takes only a few clicks.
