FTP, which is short for File Transfer Protocol, represents the most famous means for transferring website content to a hosting account. With an FTP application that is pre-installed on your desktop or laptop PC, you can make a connection to your web hosting server and copy all the web files that you need with a couple of clicks. This is done via an easy-to-navigate GUI and it is as easy as dragging ‘n’ dropping the aforementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you’ll be able to create several FTP accounts, each one with a different level of access to your web space, so if you want to provide a third party with access, for example – a web designer, they will be able to access only one specific folder and won’t be able to see the rest of your content or any other information, including personal details. You need three things in order to be able to connect via FTP – a hostname, which is usually an IP or a domain, a username and a password.

FTP Accounts in Shared Web Hosting

Each of the shared web hosting packages that we offer will allow you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts, so you will be able to administer the content of your websites independently or to provide other people with access to any website in your hosting account. In case you have a web design application pre-installed on your computer, you’ll be able to maintain multiple Internet sites all at once and to keep them up to date with ease. In case you provide the login details to some other individual to perform a certain task, you’ll be able to change the password for that FTP account or to remove it entirely with just a couple of clicks of the mouse and avoid any chance of unauthorized access to your content in the future. For convenience’s sake, all FTP accounts that you set up will be listed alphabetically in the corresponding section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP regardless of the semi-dedicated server package that you’ve opted for during the signup process, as the FTP access is among the standard features that you’ll be able to use. All our packages come with an unlimited FTP account allowance, so you’ll be able to set up as many FTP accounts as you want through the Hepsia Control Panel with which you will be able to manage your web content as well. All the accounts will be shown in alphabetical order in the Control Panel and if you don’t need a certain account anymore, you can just delete it and prevent individuals who have used it previously from connecting to it again. The latter option is especially handy if you use the services of a web designer or in case an IT individual quits the firm and you do not want them to access the web files any longer. A detailed Help library that comprises tutorial video clips will help you manage your FTP accounts if you have no previous experience.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

The VPS server packages offered by us will permit you to create unlimited FTP accounts to administer the content of your Internet sites. This is valid regardless of which package you get and which hosting Control Panel you choose during the signup process – cPanel or Hepsia. In any case, you’ll gain FTP access to the machine without installing any software, as an FTP server is an essential part of the standard software stack which is included in the VPS plans by default. You can set up one FTP account for each domain or sub-domain that you’ve registered or even several accounts for a single directory – in case you want a number of individuals to access the content inside it with their very own set of login credentials. With any of the available Control Panels, creating, removing or editing an FTP account takes no more than a few mouse clicks via an easy-to-navigate GUI.
