FTP is short for File Transfer Protocol – en extremely popular method of transmitting website files between a home computer and a web server. With an FTP client program such as CuteFTP or FileZilla, you can establish a connection to the server and check its content in one pane, whereas the files on your PC will be shown in another pane within the program window. All you’ll have to do to send files or entire folders in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is preferred by lots of users because you can create different FTP accounts and each of them can be limited to access just one single folder on the server, so a web designer, for instance, can fulfill their job without accessing any other folder in your website hosting account. In addition, the availability of different FTP accounts will also allow you to create numerous Internet sites with web design applications like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their respective folders on the server.

FTP Accounts in Web Hosting

Our web hosting plans will allow you to create multiple FTP accounts with just a few mouse clicks through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and to specify what web files and folders each one can connect to. There isn’t any upper limit on the total number of FTP accounts that you can create, so you will be able to have as many as you need at any particular moment. In case you wouldn’t like to use a certain FTP account any longer or if a web designer has completed their task and you do not want them to access the web content any longer, you can simply remove that account. The Control Panel’s FTP section will allow you to check all currently active FTP accounts shown alphabetically, along with different options, which you can access with one mouse click. You will be able to update the access path and the password, to download an auto-config file, etc. We also have an extensive Help library, which can help you manage your FTP accounts should you have to deal with any complications.
