FTP is short for File Transfer Protocol – a quite popular method for transmitting web files between a home computer and a web server. Using an FTP program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can make a connection to the server and view its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be displayed in another pane within the program window. All you have to do to send files or entire folders in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. FTP is preferred by many users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each of them can be restricted to access just one single directory on the server, so a designer, for example, can fulfill their task without accessing any other directory in your website hosting account. What’s more, the availability of different FTP accounts will also allow you to create multiple Internet sites using web design tools like Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their corresponding folders on the server.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Hosting

Our cloud hosting packages will permit you to create multiple FTP accounts with only a couple of clicks of the mouse from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to select what website files and folders each account can access. There’s no upper limit on the total number of accounts that you’re allowed to set up, so you’ll be able to have as many as you want at any particular moment. If you don’t want to use a given FTP account any longer or in case a designer has completed their job and you do not want them to connect to the web content any longer, you can simply remove that account. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to check all currently existing accounts displayed alphabetically, along with different options, which you can access with a single click of the mouse. You will be able to update the password and the access path, to download an auto-configuration file, etcetera. We also have a detailed Help library, which will help you administer your FTP accounts if you come across any impediment.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You will be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP regardless of the semi-dedicated plan that you’ve picked upon registration, since the FTP access is among the default features that you will be able to use. All our plans come with an unlimited FTP account allowance, so you can set up as many accounts as you like from the Hepsia Control Panel with which you’ll be able to administer your website content as well. All the FTP accounts will be listed in alphabetical order in the Control Panel and in case you don’t need a given account any longer, you can simply delete it and prevent persons who have used it before from accessing it again. This option is particularly useful if you use the services of a developer or if an IT specialist leaves the company and you don’t want them to connect to the web files any longer. A detailed Help database that includes instructional videos will help you manage your FTP accounts if you do not possess past experience.

FTP Accounts in VPS Hosting

The virtual private server packages that we are offering will allow you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to administer the content of your sites. This is valid regardless of which Virtual Private Server plan you order and which hosting Control Panel you choose during the registration procedure – Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin. In all cases, you will be granted FTP access to the VPS without installing any software, since an FTP server is an integral part of the standard software suite that comes with the Virtual Private Server packages by default. You can set up one FTP account for every domain or subdomain that you own or even different accounts for one single folder – if you want a number of individuals to be able to connect to the website content inside it using their very own login credentials. With any of the offered Control Panels, creating, removing or editing an FTP account will take no more than a few clicks via an intuitive web-based interface.
