FTP (File Transfer Protocol), represents the most popular method for transmitting web files to a web hosting account. With an FTP software app that’s installed on your desktop PC or laptop, you can connect to your hosting server and copy all of the files that you need with a couple of clicks. This is done via a user-friendly GUI and it is as simple as dragging & dropping the abovementioned files. The advantage of using File Transfer Protocol is that you’ll be able to set up separate accounts, each one with a different level of access to your web space, so if you would like to provide a third party with access, for example – a web designer, they will be able to connect only to a particular folder and will not be able to view the rest of your web content or any other information, including private details. Three things are needed in order to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is usually an IP address or a domain name, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Web Hosting

Our web hosting packages will allow you to set up numerous FTP accounts with only a few clicks through the Hepsia Control Panel and to indicate what files and folders each account can connect to. There’s no upper limit to the total number of FTP accounts that you are allowed to create, so you will be able to have as many as you like at any given moment. If you don’t want to use a given FTP account anymore or in case a designer has accomplished their job and you do not want them to access the website content any longer, you can simply delete the account in question. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to view all currently active FTP accounts listed alphabetically, along with various options, which you can access with one click. You will be able to edit the access path and the password, to download an auto-config file, and so on. We also have in-depth help tutorials, which will help you administer your FTP accounts should you have any problems.
