FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, is among the most widespread methods of uploading and downloading files between a PC and a server. Using FTP client software like FileZilla, you can make a connection to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or whole folders in both directions and the software itself will take care of all the rest. There are several advantages of using FTP, including the ability to resume an upload/download when there is a problem with the FTP connection or the ability to create different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can connect only to specific folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, email accounts or other information, which makes it the best solution particularly when you have to give a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular website building apps such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the web content that you have created straight from them, without having to use 3rd-party software.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Hosting

Setting up and managing numerous FTP accounts will be exceptionally easy with any of our cloud hosting plans. This feature isn’t restricted, so with our user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll be able to create as many accounts as you need to manage your websites and to get your web-connected tasks completed. In case you hire a developer and they’re done with the website, for example, you can update the FTP password or remove the whole FTP account with only one mouse click via the Control Panel. For your convenience, you will be able to view a list of all the FTP accounts that you have set up and what directories they can connect to. Handy options such as modifying the access path or the password and downloading an auto-configuration file for widely used FTP client applications are also just one click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

With our custom Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will be able to create as many FTP accounts as you want, even separate accounts that can access the very same folder – if you want different users to be able to access the exact same content with entirely different login credentials. Our semi-dedicated servers don’t involve any limit on the maximum number of the FTP accounts that you can have at a time, so you will be able to administer your website files and to modify your sites without effort. If you want to restrict the access to your content, you can change the folder that an account can access or you can remove the account altogether with no more than a couple of mouse clicks via the Control Panel. You will be able to view all the accounts and to modify any of them, if necessary. For the sake of convenience, you can also download an auto-configuration file for various FTP clients. What’s more, we’ve got exhaustive help articles and educational video clips, which will help you administer your FTP accounts in a seamless way.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

None of the VPS servers that we are offering includes a limitation on the number of FTP accounts that you can manage at any moment, so you can create a separate FTP account for any site hosted on your virtual server, irrespective of whether it’s under a domain or subdomain. Besides, it doesn’t matter which Control Panel you’ll choose when you order – cPanel or Hepsia, since an FTP server will be set up on the virtual machine at the time of the configuration of any of them. If you want different persons to connect to one and the same folder using their own set of login credentials, for instance, it will take several clicks to create a different FTP account for each of them. Deleting an existing account or changing the folder that it can connect to is just as simple and you won’t encounter any impediment, even if you don’t have any prior experience in such matters.
