FTP, which is short for File Transfer Protocol, represents one of the most popular ways to transfer website files between a computer and a server. With an FTP client program like FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your web hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire directories in either direction and the software itself will cope with the rest. There are several pros of employing FTP, including the option to resume an upload/download when there’s a problem with the connection or the ability to set up different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can connect only to particular folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, e-mails or any other info, which makes it the very best option particularly if you have to provide a web designer with 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 have created directly from them, without the need to resort to any third-party software.
FTP Accounts in Cloud Hosting
Creating and managing multiple FTP accounts will be unbelievably easy with each of our Linux cloud hosting plans. This functionality is not restricted, so using our time and effort saving Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll be able to create as many accounts as you need to, in order to administer your websites and to get your website-connected tasks completed. If you hire a web designer and they’re done with the website, for example, you can update the FTP password or delete the whole FTP account with only one single click of the mouse through the Control Panel. For convenience’s sake, you’ll be able to see a list of all the FTP accounts that you’ve set up and what directories they can connect to. Useful functions such as changing the access path or the password and downloading an auto-configuration file for widespread FTP client applications are also just a mouse click away.
FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers
With our custom-developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will be able to create as many FTP accounts as you like, even multiple accounts that can access the same directory – in case you want different persons to be able to connect to the exact same web content with totally different login details. Our Linux semi-dedicated servers do not include any restriction on the maximum number of the FTP accounts that you can manage at the same time, so you’ll be able to manage your website files and to modify your sites with ease. In case you’d like to limit the access to your content, you can alter the directory that an account can access or you can remove the account entirely with no more than a couple of clicks from the Control Panel. You will be able to see all the accounts and to modify any of them, if needed. For the sake of convenience, you can also download an auto-configuration file for a number of FTP software programs. Also, we have prepared exhaustive step-by-step articles and tutorial videos, which will help you manage your FTP accounts seamlessly.
FTP Accounts in VPS Servers
With a VPS server from us, you will be given the option to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to access your web content. This is valid for all VPS packages, irrespective of the hosting Control Panel that you have selected during the order process – Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel. Based on your demands, you can have a separate FTP account for every website or a number of FTP accounts with access to a certain folder – in case you would like to allow a number of persons to access that folder with their own sign-in credentials. Even if you’ve never opened a hosting account previously or in case you’ve only used a shared one, you won’t have any difficulties setting up, deleting or editing any FTP account on your virtual server, as everything is done via a simple-to-work-with web interface and takes only a couple of clicks of the mouse.
