File Transfer Protocol (FTP), represents the most famous method of sending files to a web hosting account. Using an FTP software application that’s installed on your desktop PC or laptop, you can set up a connection to your website hosting server and copy all of the website files that you need with several mouse clicks. You can do this via a simple-to-navigate graphical interface and it is as simple as dragging ‘n’ dropping the aforementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you can set up several FTP accounts, each with a different level of access to your server space, so if you need to grant somebody access, for example – a designer, they’ll be able to access only a specific directory and will not be able to access the rest of your content or any other info, such as personal details. Three prerequisites are mandatory to be able to connect via FTP – a hostname, which is usually an IP address or a domain, a username and a password.

FTP Accounts in Hosting

Creating and administering multiple FTP accounts will be really easy with any of our Linux hosting packages. This functionality isn’t restricted, so with our simple-to-use Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will be able to create as many FTP accounts as you have to, in order to administer your websites and to get your website-related tasks accomplished. In case you hire a web designer and they are done with the website, for instance, you can edit the FTP password or delete the entire FTP account with just one click via the Control Panel. For the sake of convenience, you’ll be able to see a list of all the FTP accounts that you have set up and the directories that they can connect to. Handy functions such as editing the access path or the password and downloading an auto-config file for famous FTP applications are also only one mouse click away.

FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you host your websites under a semi-dedicated server account, you’ll be able to set up a different FTP account for any of them, as we have not set a restriction on this service with any of our semi-dedicated server plans. You can do this through the FTP section of our easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel where you can also see the full list of all the FTP accounts that you’ve created, along with the folder that each one can access. If needed, you will be able to modify the password for a particular account or to edit its access path with a few mouse clicks. You can also delete an account with ease in case you do not need it any longer – for example, if you’ve hired a web developer who’s done with the website and you do not want them to access your website files any longer. For the sake of convenience, we’ve shot a number of how-to videos, which will help you administer your FTP accounts effortlessly in case you’ve never used a website hosting package before.

FTP Accounts in VPS

The virtual private server plans offered by us will allow you to set up unlimited FTP accounts to administer the content of your sites. This is valid regardless of which plan you get and which Control Panel you pick during the order procedure – cPanel or Hepsia. In all cases, you’ll be granted FTP access to the machine without having to install any software, as an FTP server is part of the basic software suite which is included in the VPS packages by default. You can create one FTP account for each domain or subdomain that you’ve registered or even multiple accounts for a single directory – in case you want a number of individuals to connect to the web content in it with their own sign-in details. With any of the offered Control Panels, setting up, removing or modifying an FTP account takes no more than several mouse clicks via a simple-to-work-with interface.
