FTP, which stands for File Transfer Protocol, is the most famous means of uploading web files to a web hosting account. Using an FTP client that is pre-installed on your desktop computer or laptop, you can connect to your website hosting server and copy all of the files that you want with a couple of mouse clicks. This is done via an easy-to-work-with interface and it is as simple as dragging ‘n’ dropping the aforementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is that you’re able to set up separate FTP accounts, each one with a different level of access to your online storage space, so if you have to give someone access, for example – a designer, they’ll be able to connect only to one particular folder and won’t be able to view the remaining web content or any other info, such as personal details. Three things are necessary in order to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is normally a domain name or an IP, a username and a password.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting

You can set up as many FTP accounts as you wish with any of the Linux cloud web hosting services offered by our company, as we’ve decided not to limit this functionality. In this way, you can run multiple Internet sites at once or provide other persons with access to multiple folders. Once a given job has been carried out and you do not want that person to be able to access your files anymore, you can edit the password for the particular FTP account or you can just remove the account with a couple of mouse clicks and stop worrying about somebody using it again. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which is included with all hosting accounts, will allow you to view the full list of the existing FTP accounts listed in alphabetical order. It takes only a click to manage various options for any of them – to modify the access path or the password, to download an auto-configuration file, etc.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated hosting are amazingly powerful, which makes them ideal for hosting an extensive number of sites. Speaking of which, we’ve chosen not to put a limitation on the number of FTP accounts that you can set up, so you can have a separate account for each website that you host on our servers. All FTP accounts will be listed in alphabetical order in the respective section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with each and every semi-dedicated account. For each of them, you will be able to check the access path and to update it, if necessary. Furthermore, you can set up the account in your favorite FTP client by downloading an auto-configuration file and installing it on your personal computer, which will save you time. In case you’ve never had a web hosting account before, you can watch our comprehensive educational videos, which are available in the very same section of the Control Panel.

FTP Accounts in VPS Hosting

The virtual private server packages that we offer will enable you to create unlimited FTP accounts to administer the content of your Internet sites. This is valid irrespective of which VPS plan you get and which hosting Control Panel you pick during the registration process – Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel. In all cases, you’ll acquire FTP access to the server without installing any kind of software, as an FTP server is an integral part of the basic software stack that is included in the Virtual Private Server plans by default. You can create one FTP account for each domain or sub-domain that you’ve registered or even separate accounts for a single folder – if you want a number of users to be able to connect to the website content in it with their very own set of sign-in details. With each of the available Control Panels, creating, removing or editing an FTP account will require no more than a couple of mouse clicks via an easy-to-use GUI.
