FTP, which is short for File Transfer Protocol, is one of the most widely used ways to exchange website files between a PC and a server. With FTP software like FileZilla, you can connect to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software itself will deal with all the rest. There’re several pluses of employing FTP, including the option to resume a download/upload when there’s a problem with the FTP connection or the ability to have different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only specific folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, emails or other info, which makes it the very best solution in case you need to give a web designer access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with popular web design apps like Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the Internet sites that you’ve created directly from them, without the need to make use of any third-party software.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Hosting

You can create as many FTP accounts as you need with each of the Linux cloud hosting packages offered by us, since we have decided not to limit this service. Thus, you can have numerous Internet sites at the same time or give other people access to multiple directories. Once a certain job has been done and you do not want that person to be able to connect to your web files any longer, you can change the password for the given FTP account or you can just delete the account with a few clicks of the mouse and stop worrying about anyone connecting to it once more. The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all hosting accounts, will permit you to check the full list of the existing FTP accounts listed in alphabetical order. It takes only one click to administer different options for any of them – to edit the password or the access path, to download an auto-configuration file, etc.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages are astonishingly powerful, which makes them ideal for hosting a huge number of websites. Speaking of which, we have chosen not to put a limit on the number of FTP accounts that you can set up, so you can have a separate FTP account for each website that you host on our semi-dedicated servers. All FTP accounts will be displayed in alphabetical order in the corresponding section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which is offered with each semi-dedicated account. For any of them, you will be able to view the access path and to update it, if needed. Furthermore, you can set up an account in a client of your choosing by downloading an auto-config file and running it on your home PC, which will save you time. If you’ve never had a web hosting account before, you can watch our comprehensive tutorial video clips, which can be accessed through the exact same Control Panel section.

FTP Accounts in VPS Hosting

The virtual private server packages that we offer will allow you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to administer the content of your sites. This is valid irrespective of which Virtual Private Server plan you get and which Control Panel you select during the signup process – DirectAdmin, cPanel or Hepsia. In any case, you’ll acquire FTP access to the virtual server without installing any kind of software, as an FTP server is an integral part of the basic software bundle which is included in the VPS plans by default. You can set up one FTP account for each domain or subdomain that you have or even separate accounts for one single folder – if you want a number of people to access the web content inside it with their very own personal log-in details. With any of the offered Control Panels, creating, removing or modifying an FTP account will require no more than a couple of clicks of the mouse via a simple-to-navigate graphical interface.
