FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol – a pretty popular method of transferring web files between a home PC and a web server. With an FTP program such as FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can connect to the server and view its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be displayed in another pane within the program window. All you’ll need to do to send files or whole directories in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. FTP is preferred by plenty of users because you can create different FTP accounts and each one can be limited to access just one single directory on the server, so a web designer, for instance, can carry out their job without being able to access any other content in your website hosting account. What’s more, the availability of different FTP accounts will also allow you to build numerous Internet sites using web design tools such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their specific directories on the server.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Website Hosting

You can create as many FTP accounts as you need with each of the Linux cloud website hosting offered by us, because we have chosen not to limit this functionality. Thus, you can maintain numerous Internet sites simultaneously or provide other individuals with access to multiple directories. As soon as a specific task has been completed and you wouldn’t like that person to be able to access your files anymore, you can modify the password associated with the particular FTP account or you can simply remove that account with several clicks and stop worrying about somebody accessing it once more. The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all shared hosting accounts, will permit you to view the full list of the active FTP accounts shown in alphabetical order. It takes only one click of the mouse to manage various options for any of them – to edit the password or the access path, to download an auto-configuration file, etc.

FTP Accounts in VPS Web Hosting

The virtual private server plans offered by us will enable you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts to administer the content of your Internet sites. This is valid irrespective of which plan you buy and which hosting Control Panel you pick during the signup procedure – DirectAdmin, Hepsia or cPanel. In all cases, you will gain FTP access to the Virtual Private Server without installing any kind of software, since an FTP server is an essential part of the basic software bundle that is included in the Virtual Private Server packages by default. You can set up one FTP account for each domain or subdomain that you’ve got or even several FTP accounts for one single directory – in case you want a number of individuals to connect to the content in it with their very own login details. With each of the offered Control Panels, creating, removing or editing an FTP account takes no more than several mouse clicks through a user-friendly interface.
