FTP, which stands for File Transfer Protocol, represents the most popular means of uploading content to a hosting account. With FTP client software that is pre-installed on your desktop PC or laptop, you can make a connection to your web hosting server and copy all of the website files that you want with several clicks. This is done via a simple-to-use GUI and it is as easy as dragging ‘n’ dropping the files in question. The advantage of using FTP is that you will be able to set up separate accounts, each with a different level of access to your online storage space, so if you have to grant somebody access, for instance – a designer, they’ll be able to connect only to one specific folder and won’t be able to see the rest of your web content or any other info, such as private details. Three things are obligatory to be able to connect via FTP – a hostname, which is usually an IP or a domain, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting

Our cloud web hosting plans will permit you to create numerous FTP accounts with just a few clicks via the Hepsia Control Panel and to specify what files and folders each one can access. There’s no upper limit to the maximum number of FTP accounts that you can set up, so you will be able to have as many as you like at any particular moment. If you don’t want to use a particular FTP account any longer or in case a designer has completed their job and you don’t want them to connect to the web content any longer, you can simply delete the account in question. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to see all currently active FTP accounts shown alphabetically, together with various options, which you can access with one single click. You’ll be able to change the access path and the password, to download an auto-config file, etcetera. We also have an exhaustive Help database, which can help you manage your FTP accounts if you run into any impediment.
