FTP, which stands for File Transfer Protocol, is the most popular means for sending website files to a hosting account. With an FTP client program that is installed on your desktop PC or laptop, you can make a connection to your hosting server and copy all of the files that you want with several mouse clicks. You can do this via an easy-to-use interface and it is as simple as dragging and dropping the files in question. The advantage of using FTP is that you will be able to set up several accounts, each one with a different level of access to your web space, so if you would like to provide someone with access, for example – a web designer, they will be able to connect only to a specific folder and will not be able to see the rest of your web content or any other information, including personal details. Three things are required to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is normally an IP address or a domain name, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting packages will allow you to create numerous FTP accounts with just several mouse clicks via the Hepsia Control Panel and to choose what website files and folders each account can access. There isn’t any upper limit on the maximum number of FTP accounts that you’re allowed to set up, so you’ll be able to have as many as you like at any particular time. If you wouldn’t like to use a given FTP account anymore or in case a web designer has fulfilled their task and you don’t want them to access the website content anymore, you can simply remove the account in question. The Control Panel’s FTP section will permit you to see all currently existing FTP accounts listed in alphabetical order, along with different options, which you can access with a single mouse click. You’ll be able to change the password and the access path, to download an auto-configuration file, etcetera. We also have elaborate help articles, which can help you manage your FTP accounts in case you have to deal with any obstacle.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You’ll be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP irrespective of the semi-dedicated server package that you’ve selected during the signup process, as 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 can set up as many accounts as you like from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you’ll be able to manage your website content as well. All the accounts will be shown alphabetically in the Control Panel and if you don’t require a particular account any longer, you can just remove it and prevent individuals who have used it before from accessing it again. The latter functionality is particularly handy if you use the services of a designer or if an IT individual exits the firm and you don’t want them to access the website files anymore. A detailed Help section that includes how-to video clips will help you manage your FTP accounts if you don’t possess prior experience.

FTP Accounts in VPS Web Hosting

With a virtual private server from our company, you’ll have the opportunity to create unlimited FTP accounts to access your web content. This is valid for all VPS configurations, irrespective of the Control Panel that you’ve chosen on the order page – Hepsia or cPanel. Based on your necessities, you can create a different FTP account for every site or several accounts with access to a given folder – in case you wish to allow a number of users to be able to access that folder with their own log-in credentials. Even if you’ve never used a website hosting account before or in case you’ve only had a shared one, you will not have any difficulties setting up, deleting or modifying any FTP account on the virtual machine, as everything is done via a simple-to-work-with GUI and takes only a couple of clicks of the mouse.
