FTP Accounts
Understand more about what FTP is, what it does and what is the benefit of using multiple FTP Accounts.
FTP (File Transfer Protocol), represents the most popular method for sending web content to a hosting account. With an FTP client application that is pre-installed on your desktop or laptop computer, you can set up a connection to your website hosting server and copy all the files that you want with a few clicks of the mouse. You can do this via a simple-to-navigate interface and it is as easy as dragging ‘n’ dropping the abovementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you will be able to create several accounts, each with a different level of access to your server space, so if you would like to provide a third party with access, for example – a designer, they will be able to connect only to a particular directory and will not be able to access the remaining content or any other info, such as private details. Three things are required to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is normally a domain name or an IP, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Website Hosting
Our
website hosting plans will permit you to create multiple FTP accounts with just a few clicks of the mouse through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to define what web files and folders each one can connect to. There’s no upper limit on the maximum number of FTP accounts that you are allowed to set up, so you’ll be able to have as many as you wish at any particular moment. If you would not like to use a given FTP account any longer or if a web designer has completed their task and you don’t want them to access the website content anymore, you can simply remove the account in question. The Control Panel’s FTP section will allow you to check all currently active FTP accounts listed alphabetically, together with various options, which you can access with a single mouse click. You’ll be able to change the password and the access path, to download an auto-configuration file, etcetera. We also have an exhaustive Help section, which can help you manage your FTP accounts if you have to deal with any difficulties.

This is valid regardless of which Virtual Private Server plan you buy and which Control Panel you select on the order form – cPanel, DirectAdmin or Hepsia.
