FTP (File Transfer Protocol), represents the most famous way to upload content to a hosting account. Using an FTP client app that is installed on your desktop computer or laptop, you can connect to your website hosting server and copy all the web files that you want with several clicks. This is done via a user-friendly interface and it is as easy as dragging & dropping the abovementioned files. The advantage of using File Transfer Protocol is the fact that you are able to create different FTP accounts, each one with a different level of access to your server space, so if you would like to provide a third party with access, for instance – a web designer, they’ll be able to access only one specific folder and won’t be able to access the remaining web content or any other info, such as private details. Three things are required to be able to establish an FTP connection – a hostname, which is normally an IP or a domain, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Shared Web Hosting

Our shared web hosting plans will allow you to set up numerous FTP accounts with just several clicks via the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to select what web files and folders each one can connect to. There isn’t any upper limit to the maximum number of FTP accounts that you’re allowed to set up, so you’ll be able to have as many as you like at any particular moment. If you do not want to use a specific FTP account any longer or if a web designer has fulfilled their task and you don’t want them to connect to the web content any longer, you can simply delete that account. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to view all currently existing FTP accounts shown in alphabetical order, along with different options, which you can access with one mouse click. You’ll be able to edit the access path and the password, to download an auto-config file, etc. We also have an in-depth Help library, which can help you manage your FTP accounts in case you need to deal with any difficulties.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

The VPS server plans that we’re offering will permit you to create unlimited FTP accounts to manage the content of your sites. This is valid regardless of which VPS plan you buy and which hosting Control Panel you select upon signup – Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin. In any case, you will gain FTP access to the server without having to install any software, as an FTP server is part of the basic software stack that comes with the VPS plans by default. You can set up one FTP account for each domain or sub-domain that you have or even separate FTP accounts for a single directory – if you want different persons to connect to the web content in it using their own log-in credentials. With each of the offered Control Panels, setting up, removing or editing an FTP account will require no more than several mouse clicks via an easy-to-use web interface.
