FTP, which is an abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol, represents one of the most widespread methods of sending files between a PC and a server. Using FTP software such as FileZilla, you can connect to your website hosting account and drag & drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software itself will handle all the rest. There’re a number of pros of using FTP, among them the possibility to restart an upload/download if there’s a problem with the connection and the possibility to use different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can connect only to particular folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, e-mails or any other info, which makes it the very best solution particularly if you need to grant a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with famous applications like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the Internet sites that you’ve created straight from them, without the need to make use of 3rd-party software.
FTP Accounts in Cloud Website Hosting
Any of the cloud website hosting plans that we offer will permit you to set up unlimited FTP accounts, so you will be able to manage the content of your Internet sites independently or to provide other people with access to any site in your web hosting account. If you’ve got a web design software app pre-installed on your personal computer, you will be able to administer numerous websites at the same time and to update them effortlessly. If you give the login credentials to another individual for a certain task, you’ll be able to modify the password for that FTP account or to remove it altogether with just a few clicks and avoid any risk of unsolicited access to your web content from then on. For your convenience, all FTP accounts that you set up will be listed alphabetically in the corresponding section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel.
FTP Accounts in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will be able to access your semi-dedicated server account via FTP irrespective of the semi-dedicated plan that you’ve opted for during the subscription process, since the FTP access is one of the standard features that you’ll be able to make use of. All our packages include an unlimited FTP account quota, so you can create as many accounts as you want from the Hepsia Control Panel with which you’ll be able to administer your web content too. All the accounts will be shown in alphabetical order in the Control Panel and in case you do not require a particular account anymore, you can just remove it and block persons who have used it previously from accessing it again. This functionality is especially useful in case you use the services of a web developer or if an IT specialist exits your firm and you don’t want them to connect to the web files anymore. An exhaustive Help section that includes instructional videos will help you manage your FTP accounts if you do not possess any prior experience.
