FTP is short for File Transfer Protocol – a very popular method of transmitting files between a computer system and a web server. With an FTP software program such as CuteFTP or FileZilla, you can set up a connection to the server and see its content in one pane, while the files on your PC will be shown in another pane within the program window. All it takes to send files or entire folders in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is used by many users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each one can be restricted to connect to just one folder on the server, so a designer, for instance, can complete their job without being able to access any other content in the website hosting account. In addition, the presence of different FTP accounts will also allow you to build numerous Internet sites with web design applications like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their specific directories on the server.

FTP Accounts in Shared Website Hosting

Creating and managing numerous FTP accounts will be really easy with each of our shared website hosting. This service is not restricted, so with our easy-to-work-with Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to set up as many accounts as you need to, in order to manage your websites and to get your website-related tasks completed. In case you hire a developer and they are done with the website, for instance, you can modify the FTP password or delete the whole FTP account with only one click via the Control Panel. For your convenience, you’ll be able to check a list of all the accounts that you have created and what directories they can access. Handy options such as changing the password or the path and downloading an auto-configuration file for commonly used FTP applications are also only a click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you host your Internet sites under a semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to set up a separate FTP account for each one of them, as we have not limited this feature with any of our semi-dedicated packages. You can do this via the FTP section of our easy-to-use Hepsia hosting Control Panel where you can also view the complete list of all the accounts that you’ve set up, together with the folder that each one can access. If necessary, you will be able to modify the password for a given account or to change its access path with a couple of clicks. You can also delete an account without efforts if you don’t require it any longer – for instance, if you have hired a web developer who’s done with the site and you do not want them to connect to your website files any longer. For convenience’s sake, we have prepared different instructional video clips, that will help you manage your FTP accounts effortlessly if you’ve never used a web hosting package before.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

The VPS server plans that we’re offering will allow you to set up an unlimited number of FTP accounts to manage the content of your sites. This is valid regardless of which package you buy and which Control Panel you select during the registration procedure – DirectAdmin, cPanel or Hepsia. In all cases, you will get FTP access to the VPS without having to install any software, since an FTP server is part of the standard software bundle which comes with the VPS plans by default. You can set up one FTP account for each domain or subdomain that you have registered or even different accounts for a single directory – in case you want different individuals to be able to access the website content in it using their own set of log-in details. With each of the Control Panels, setting up, removing or modifying an FTP account requires no more than a couple of clicks via an intuitive GUI.
