FTP, which is an abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol, represents one of the most commonly used ways to transmit web files between a computer and a web server. With FTP software such as FileZilla, you can connect to your web hosting account and drag & drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software will handle the rest. There’re several advantages of employing File Transfer Protocol, among them the option to resume a download/upload if there is a problem with the connection or the option to create different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can connect only to particular folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, email accounts or other information, which makes it the best solution if you have to provide a web designer with access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with famous web design apps like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the web content that you have created straight from them, without having to use 3rd-party software.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Hosting

You can set up as many FTP accounts as you like with any of the Linux cloud hosting that we’re offering, as we have decided not to limit this feature. Thus, you can run multiple sites simultaneously or provide other persons with access to multiple folders. As soon as a particular task has been fulfilled and you would not like that individual to be able to access your files any longer, you can edit the password associated with the FTP account or you can just remove the account with several clicks of the mouse and stop worrying about anyone accessing it again. The Hepsia Control Panel, which is offered with all web hosting accounts, will allow you to check the complete list of the existing FTP accounts shown in alphabetical order. It takes just one single click to administer different options for any of them – to modify the password or the access path, to download an auto-config file, etc.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting are exceptionally powerful, which makes them ideal for hosting a lot of Internet sites. Speaking of which, we’ve chosen 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 semi-dedicated servers. All FTP accounts will be listed in alphabetical order in the respective section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with each semi-dedicated server account. For any of them, you will be able to check the access path and to change it, if necessary. In addition, you can set up a new account in your favorite FTP client by downloading an auto-configuration file and running it on your PC, which will save you time. If you have never used a hosting account previously, you can watch our comprehensive educational videos, which can be accessed through the very same Control Panel section.
