FTP is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol – a rather popular method of sending website files between a home computer and a web server. With an FTP client program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can make 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 program window. All it takes to send files or whole directories in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is preferred by lots of users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each of them can be limited to connect to just one folder on the server, so a designer, for example, can complete their job without being able to access any other folder in the hosting account. What’s more, the availability of different FTP accounts will also permit you to create numerous Internet sites with web design tools such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their respective directories on the server.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Hosting

Creating and managing multiple FTP accounts will be really easy with any of our cloud service. This functionality isn’t limited, so using our time and effort saving Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to set up as many accounts as you need to administer your websites and to get your web-related tasks done. If you hire a designer and they are done with the site, for example, you can modify the FTP password or delete the whole FTP account with only one single click of the mouse through the Control Panel. For your convenience, you’ll be able to view a list of all the accounts that you have set up and what directories they can access. Useful functions such as modifying the password or the access path and downloading an auto-config file for widely used FTP apps are also only a click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You’ll be able to connect to your semi-dedicated server account via FTP regardless of the package that you have chosen upon signup, as the FTP access is among the standard features that you will be able to take advantage of. All our plans come with an unlimited FTP account allowance, so you can create as many FTP accounts as you wish from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you will be able to administer your website content as well. All the FTP accounts will be displayed alphabetically in the Control Panel and in case you do not need a particular account any longer, you can simply delete it and stop individuals who have used it previously from connecting to it again. This functionality is particularly handy if you use the services of a web developer or in case an IT person departs your firm and you do not want them to connect to the web files anymore. A comprehensive Help database that comprises tutorial video clips will help you manage your FTP accounts if you do not have any past experience.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

None of the VPS hosting service that we offer includes any restriction on the maximum number of FTP accounts that you can have at any given time, so you can set up a separate FTP account for any Internet site hosted on your server, irrespective of whether it is under a domain or sub-domain. What’s more, it does not matter which hosting Control Panel you’ll pick when you subscribe – Hepsia or cPanel, as an FTP server will be set up on your VPS at the time of the installation of any of them. If you want a number of people to set up an FTP connection to the very same directory using their own login credentials, for example, it will take a couple of clicks to create an FTP account for each of them. Removing an active account or modifying the folder that it can connect to is just as simple and you won’t have to deal with any impediment, even if you do not have prior experience in such matters.
