File Transfer Protocol, or FTP, is among the most famous ways to upload and download files between a PC and a server. With an FTP software program like FileZilla, you can make a connection to your hosting account and drag & drop files or entire folders in both directions and the software will do the rest. There’re several pros of using File Transfer Protocol, among them the possibility to restart a download/upload if there is some problem with the connection or the ability to use different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, emails or any other info, which makes it the ideal solution when you have to provide a web designer with access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with famous web design applications like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the Internet sites that you have created straight from them, without the need to resort to third-party software.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting

Our cloud web hosting packages will allow you to create numerous FTP accounts with just several mouse clicks via the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to define what website files and folders each account can connect to. There isn’t any upper limit on the maximum number of FTP accounts that you are allowed to create, so you will be able to have as many as you wish at any given time. In case you don’t want to use a given FTP account any longer or in case a web designer has fulfilled their job and you do not want them to connect to the web content anymore, you can simply delete that account. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to view all currently existing FTP accounts displayed in alphabetical order, along with various options, which you can access with one click of the mouse. You will be able to edit the password and the access path, to download an auto-config file, etc. We also have an elaborate Help section, which can help you manage your FTP accounts in case you experience any problem.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you host your websites in a semi-dedicated server account, you’ll be able to create a different FTP account for each one of them, since we have not set a limit on this service with any of our semi-dedicated plans. You can do this via the FTP section of our easy-to-navigate Hepsia Control Panel where you can also see the full list of all the FTP accounts that you have set up, together with the folder that each one can access. If necessary, you will be able to update the password for a particular FTP account or to edit its access path with a few clicks of the mouse. You can also delete an account without effort in case you do not need it any longer – for instance, if you have hired a developer who is done with the Internet site and you do not want them to access your files anymore. For convenience’s sake, we have compiled different instructional videos, that will help you manage your FTP accounts effortlessly if you’ve never used a website hosting package previously.

FTP Accounts in VPS

None of the Linux VPS that we are offering has a limit on the maximum number of FTP accounts that you can manage at any given time, so you can set up a separate FTP account for any Internet site hosted on the machine, no matter if it’s under a domain or subdomain. Besides, it does not matter which Control Panel you’ll choose when you subscribe – cPanel, DirectAdmin or Hepsia, as an FTP server will be set up on the virtual machine at the time of the configuration of any of them. In case you want a number of persons to be able to set up an FTP connection to the same directory with their own sign-in details, for instance, it will take a couple of mouse clicks to set up a separate FTP account for each one of them. Removing an existing account or modifying the directory that it can connect to is just as easy and you will not have any obstacle, even if you have no past experience in such matters.
