FTP, which stands for File Transfer Protocol, is among the most widespread methods of transferring files between a computer and a web server. With FTP software such as FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your web hosting account and drag & drop files or whole directories in both directions and the software will handle all the rest. There are several pros of using File Transfer Protocol, among them the option to resume a download/upload when there’s some problem with the connection and the ability to set up different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, e-mail accounts or any other info, which makes it the perfect solution in case you have to grant a web designer access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with famous web design applications such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the websites that you’ve created straight from them, without having to make use of third-party software.

FTP Accounts in Website Hosting

Our website hosting packages will allow you to set up numerous FTP accounts with only a few clicks via the Hepsia Control Panel and to choose what files and folders each account can access. There is no upper limit to the maximum number of FTP accounts that you’re allowed to set up, so you will be able to have as many as you need at any particular time. In case you would not like to use a specific FTP account anymore or if a designer has completed their job and you don’t want them to connect to your website content anymore, you can simply delete that account. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to check all currently active FTP accounts listed alphabetically, together with various options, which you can access with one single mouse click. You’ll be able to edit the access path and the password, to download an auto-configuration file, etcetera. We also have a comprehensive Help database, which can help you administer your FTP accounts if you come across any complication.

If you host your Internet sites in a semi-dedicated server account, you’ll be able to set up a separate FTP account for each one of them, as we haven’t set a limit on this service with any of our packages.

If needed, you’ll be able to change the password for a certain FTP account or to change its access path with a couple of mouse clicks. You can also delete an account with ease in case you don’t require it anymore – for instance, if you have hired a web designer who is done with the Internet site and you don’t want them to connect to your files any longer. For convenience’s sake, we have compiled a number of tutorial videos, that will help you manage your FTP accounts with ease if you have never used a website hosting package previously.
