FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, represents the most popular means of uploading web content to a hosting account. With an FTP app that is installed on your desktop or laptop computer, you can make a connection to your web hosting server and copy all of the web files that you need with several mouse clicks. You can do this using an easy-to-navigate interface and it is as simple as dragging ‘n’ dropping the abovementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you are able to create different accounts, each with a different level of access to your online storage space, so if you must provide somebody with access, for instance – a web designer, they will be able to connect only to one particular folder and won’t be able to view the remaining web content or any other info, including personal details. Three prerequisites are compulsory to be able to connect via FTP – a hostname, which is normally a domain name or an IP, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Website Hosting

You can create as many FTP accounts as you need with each of the cloud website hosting service that we are offering, because we have decided not to limit this feature. In this way, you can have numerous sites simultaneously or give other persons access to multiple directories. Once a specific task has been accomplished and you would not like that individual to be able to connect to your files any longer, you can update the password associated with the given FTP account or you can just delete that account with a few clicks and quit worrying about anybody accessing it once more. The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all web hosting packages, will permit you to see the full list of the active FTP accounts listed in alphabetical order. It takes just one single click of the mouse to manage various options for any of them – to change the access path or the password, to download an auto-configuration file, etc.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP regardless of the plan that you have chosen during the subscription process, since the FTP access is among the standard features that you’ll be able to take advantage of. All our plans come with an unlimited FTP account quota, so you’ll be able to set up as many accounts as you need via the Hepsia Control Panel with which you’ll be able to manage your website content too. All the FTP accounts will be displayed alphabetically in the Control Panel and if you don’t require a particular account anymore, you can just delete it and stop people who have used it before from accessing it again. The latter option is particularly handy in case you use the services of a web developer or if an IT professional retires from your company and you do not want them to connect to the web files anymore. An in-depth Help database that contains educational video clips will help you manage your FTP accounts in case you have no past experience.
