FTP Accounts
Learn more about what FTP actually is, what it does and what is the advantage of acquiring multiple FTP Accounts.
FTP (File Transfer Protocol), is among the most commonly used means for exchanging files between a PC and a server. With an FTP software program such as FileZilla, you can connect to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or whole folders in either direction and the software will deal with the rest. There are several advantages of using File Transfer Protocol, among them the option to restart a download/upload when there’s some problem with the connection and the option to have different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, e-mail accounts or any other info, which makes it the ideal option especially if you need to provide a web designer with access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular apps such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the web content that you have created directly from them, without the need to use third-party software.
FTP Accounts in Shared Hosting
Our shared hosting plans will allow you to create multiple FTP accounts with just a couple of clicks through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to select what web files and folders each account can access. There is no upper limit on the total number of accounts that you can create, so you will be able to have as many as you wish at any particular moment. If you would not like to use a certain FTP account any longer or if a web designer has done their job and you don’t want them to access the website content anymore, you can simply remove that account. The Control Panel’s FTP section will permit you to see all currently active FTP accounts displayed in alphabetical order, together with various options, which you can access with a click. You’ll be able to modify the password and the access path, to download an auto-config file, etc. We also have an extensive Help library, which will help you manage your FTP accounts should you come across any complication.
