FTP is an abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol – a pretty popular method of sending web files between a home PC and a web server. With an FTP software program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can establish a connection to the server and view its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be shown in another pane within the main program window. All you will 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 used by plenty of users because you can create different FTP accounts and each one can be restricted to connect to just one single folder on the server, so a designer, for instance, can carry out their job without being able to view any other folder in the website hosting account. What’s more, the presence of different FTP accounts will also permit you to build numerous Internet sites with web design apps like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their corresponding directories on the server.

FTP Accounts in Hosting

Our hosting packages will allow you to set up numerous FTP accounts with only a couple of clicks of the mouse through the Hepsia Control Panel and to specify what files and folders each account can access. There isn’t any upper limit on the maximum number of accounts that you are allowed to set up, so you can have as many as you need at any particular time. If you wouldn’t like to use a specific FTP account anymore or in case a web designer has done their task and you do not want them to connect to your website content anymore, you can simply remove the account in question. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to see all currently active FTP accounts shown in alphabetical order, along with various options, which you can access with one single click. You’ll be able to change the access path and the password, to download an auto-configuration file, etcetera. We also have elaborate help tutorials, which will help you manage your FTP accounts if you run into any impediment.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

Using our custom-developed Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to create as many FTP accounts as you need, even separate accounts that can access the exact same directory – in case you would like different users to be able to access the exact same web content with totally different login details. Our Linux semi-dedicated servers don’t involve a limitation on the total number of the FTP accounts that you can have at a time, so you’ll be able to manage your website files and to modify your websites with ease. In case you would like to block the access to your website content, you can change the folder that an account can connect to or you can remove the account altogether with no more than a couple of clicks via the Control Panel. You’ll be able to view all the FTP accounts and to edit any of them, if needed. For your convenience, you can also download an auto-config file for different FTP programs. What’s more, we’ve compiled exhaustive help articles and instructional videos, which will help you administer your FTP accounts without any hassles.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

The VPS server plans that we’re offering will allow you to create unlimited FTP accounts to manage the content of your Internet sites. This is valid irrespective of which Virtual Private Server plan you order and which Control Panel you select upon signup – DirectAdmin, cPanel or Hepsia. In any case, you will have FTP access to the Virtual Private Server without having to install any software, as an FTP server is part of the software bundle that comes with the VPS plans by default. You can set up one FTP account for each domain or subdomain that you own or even different accounts for one single directory – if you want different individuals to connect to the content in it using their very own log-in details. With any of the Control Panels, setting up, deleting or modifying an FTP account takes no more than a few clicks via a simple-to-use web-based interface.
