FTP, which denotes File Transfer Protocol, represents the most famous method of transmitting content to a web hosting account. With an FTP program that is installed on your desktop PC or laptop, you can establish a connection to your hosting server and copy all of the website files that you want with several mouse clicks. You can do this using a user-friendly interface and it is as simple as dragging & dropping the files in question. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you’re able to set up separate FTP accounts, each with a different level of access to your server space, so if you would like to provide someone with access, for instance – a web designer, they’ll be able to access only one particular folder and will not be able to access the remaining content or any other info, including personal details. Three prerequisites are mandatory in order to be able to make an FTP connection – a hostname, which is usually an IP address or a domain, a username and a password.

FTP Accounts in Shared Hosting

You can create as many FTP accounts as you want with each of the Linux shared hosting services that we’re offering, as we have chosen not to limit this functionality. Thus, you can maintain numerous Internet sites all at once or grant other persons access to different folders. As soon as a particular job has been carried out and you don’t want that individual to be able to access your files any longer, you can modify the password for the specific FTP account or you can just remove the account with a few clicks and quit worrying about anybody connecting to it again. The Hepsia Control Panel, which is included with all web hosting packages, will allow you to check the full list of the existing FTP accounts listed alphabetically. It takes only one single click to administer different options for any of them – to change the password or the access path, to download an auto-config file, etc.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our Linux semi-dedicated services are stunningly powerful, which makes them suitable for hosting an extensive number of sites. Speaking of which, we’ve decided not to put a limit on the number of FTP accounts that you can set up, so you can have a different account for each website that you host on our servers. All FTP accounts will be displayed in alphabetical order in the corresponding section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with each and every semi-dedicated account. For each of them, you’ll be able to view the access path and to edit it, if needed. Furthermore, you can set up an account in an FTP client of your liking by downloading an auto-configuration file and installing it on your home computer, which will save you time. In case you have never used a web hosting account before, you can check out our exhaustive educational video clips, which can be accessed through the exact same section of the Control Panel.

FTP Accounts in VPS Web Hosting

With a virtual private server from us, you will have the possibility to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to connect to your website content. This is valid for all virtual server configurations, regardless of which Control Panel you’ve selected during the signup procedure – cPanel, DirectAdmin or Hepsia. Depending on your necessities, you can set up a different FTP account for every website or several FTP accounts with access to a particular folder – in case you’d like to allow different individuals to connect to that folder with their very own log-in credentials. Even if you’ve never used a website hosting account before or in case you’ve only had a shared one, you won’t have any problems creating, deleting or modifying any FTP account on the VPS server, as everything’s done through an easy-to-work-with graphical interface and takes just a few mouse clicks.
