FTP (short for File Transfer Protocol), represents the most famous means for sending website files to a web hosting account. With FTP software that’s pre-installed on your desktop or laptop computer, you can establish a connection to your hosting server and copy all of the website files that you want with a couple of mouse clicks. This is done via an easy-to-use interface and it is as simple as dragging & dropping the aforementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you will be able to create separate accounts, each with a different level of access to your server space, so if you need to provide somebody with access, for instance – a web designer, they will be able to access only a specific directory and won’t be able to view the rest of your content or any other info, including personal details. Three things are compulsory in order to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is usually an IP address or a domain, a username and a password.

FTP Accounts in Web Hosting

Setting up and managing multiple FTP accounts will be really easy with each of our Linux web hosting service. This feature isn’t restricted, so with our simple-to-work-with Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to set up as many accounts as you have to, in order to administer your sites and to get your web-related tasks completed. If you hire a web developer and they’re done with the site, for example, you can update the FTP password or delete the whole FTP account with just one mouse click from the Control Panel. For convenience’s sake, you’ll be able to view a list of all the accounts that you have set up and what folders they can connect to. Handy options such as changing the path or the password and downloading an auto-config file for widely used FTP applications are also just one mouse click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

With our in-house developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll be able to create as many FTP accounts as you like, even separate accounts with access to the very same folder – if you want several persons to be able to access the very same website content with totally different login credentials. Our semi-dedicated service do not involve a restriction on the maximum number of the FTP accounts that you can have at a time, so you will be able to manage your web files and to modify your Internet sites without effort. In case you would like to limit the access to your web content, you can change the directory that an account can connect to or you can remove the account entirely with no more than a couple of clicks of the mouse through the Control Panel. You will be able to view all the accounts and to modify any of them, if necessary. For your convenience, you can also download an auto-configuration file for various FTP applications. Furthermore, we’ve prepared in-depth help articles and video tutorials, which will help you administer your FTP accounts without any hassles.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

None of the Linux VPS hosting service that we’re offering includes a limitation on the total number of FTP accounts that you can manage at any given time, so you can create a separate FTP account for any site hosted on your virtual machine, irrespective of whether it’s under a domain or subdomain. In addition, it does not matter which hosting Control Panel you’ll choose when you subscribe – cPanel, DirectAdmin or Hepsia, as an FTP server will be set up on your VPS at the time of the configuration of any of them. In case you want a number of people to be able to access one and the same folder with their very own log-in credentials, for instance, it’ll take several mouse clicks to create a different FTP account for each one of them. Removing an active account or changing the folder that it can access is just as simple and you won’t run into any complication, even if you do not have previous experience in such matters.
