FTP denotes File Transfer Protocol – en extremely popular method for exchanging website files between a computer and a server. With an FTP client program such as FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can set up a connection to the server and check its content in one pane, whereas the files on your PC will be displayed in another pane within the main program window. All you’ll need to do to send files or entire directories in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. FTP is preferred by a lot of users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each one can be restricted to connect to just one single directory on the server, so a designer, for example, can carry out their job without accessing any other directory in the web hosting account. What’s more, the availability of different FTP accounts will also permit you to build numerous Internet sites using web design apps like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their corresponding folders on the server.

FTP Accounts in Shared Web Hosting

Setting up and administering multiple FTP accounts will be very easy with each of our shared web hosting plans. This feature isn’t restricted, so with our easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll be able to create as many accounts as you need to manage your websites and to get your website-connected tasks done. If you hire a designer and they are done with the website, for example, you can update the FTP password or remove the whole FTP account with just one single click through the Control Panel. For the sake of convenience, you’ll be able to check a list of all the FTP accounts that you’ve created and the directories that they can connect to. Useful functions such as modifying the access path or the password and downloading an auto-configuration file for commonly used FTP clients are also just a mouse click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to connect to your semi-dedicated server account via FTP irrespective of the plan that you’ve picked during the signup process, since the FTP access is among the standard features that you’ll get. All our plans include an unlimited FTP account allowance, so you’ll be able to create as many FTP accounts as you want from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you will be able to administer your website content as well. All the accounts will be displayed alphabetically in the Control Panel and in case you don’t require a particular account any longer, you can simply remove it and prevent people who have used it previously from accessing it again. The latter option is especially useful if you use the services of a web designer or if an IT individual leaves your firm and you don’t want them to access the website files anymore. An extensive Help library that includes tutorial video clips will help you administer your FTP accounts if you do not possess any prior experience.

Even if you have never had a website hosting account before or in case you’ve only used a shared one, you won’t have any difficulties creating, removing or editing any FTP account on your Virtual Private Server, since everything’s done via a time and effort saving web interface and takes only a few mouse clicks.
