FTP, which is short for File Transfer Protocol, is among the most popular methods for uploading and downloading files between a computer and a server. Using an FTP software program such as FileZilla, you can establish a connection to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or whole folders in either direction and the software itself will take care of the rest. There’re a number of pluses of employing FTP, among them the possibility to resume a download/upload if there’s a problem with the FTP connection and the option to create 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, emails or any other information, which makes it the best option particularly if you have to grant a web designer access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with famous applications like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the Internet sites that you have created directly from them, without the need to use any third-party software.

FTP Accounts in Shared Website Hosting

Any of the shared website hosting packages that we are offering will enable you to set up an unlimited number of FTP accounts, so you’ll be able to manage the content of your Internet sites separately or to provide other persons with access to any website in your hosting account. In case you’ve got a web design software application installed on your home computer, you will be able to manage numerous websites at the same time and to update them effortlessly. If you provide the login info to another individual to do a given task, you will be able to edit the password for that FTP account or to remove it completely with just a couple of mouse clicks and prevent any possibility of unauthorized access to your website content from then on. For your convenience, all FTP accounts that you create will be displayed in alphabetical order in the respective section of your Hepsia Control Panel.

If necessary, you’ll be able to change the password for a particular FTP account or to modify its access path with several clicks. You can also delete an account effortlessly in case you don’t require it anymore – for instance, if you have hired a developer who’s done with the Internet site and you do not want them to access your web files anymore. For your convenience, we have prepared a number of tutorial videos, which will help you administer your FTP accounts effortlessly in case you’ve never used a web hosting service previously.
