FTP Accounts
Learn more about what FTP really is, what it can do and what is the main benefit of having multiple FTP Accounts.
File Transfer Protocol (FTP), represents the most famous method of transferring web files to a hosting account. With an FTP application that is pre-installed on your desktop computer or laptop, you can make a connection to your website hosting server and copy all of the files that you want with several clicks. You can do this via an intuitive graphical interface and it is as simple as dragging & dropping the aforementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you’ll be able to set up different FTP accounts, each one with a different level of access to your web space, so if you would like to provide someone with access, for instance – a designer, they will be able to connect only to one particular folder and won’t be able to see the remaining web content or any other information, such as private details. Three things are mandatory in order to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is normally an IP or a domain, a user name and a password.
FTP Accounts in Website Hosting
Any of the website hosting plans that we’re offering will enable you to create unlimited FTP accounts, so you’ll be able to manage the content of your Internet sites separately or to provide other people with access to any Internet site in your web hosting account. If you have a web design application pre-installed on your home PC, you will be able to manage multiple Internet sites all at once and to update them without efforts. In case you provide the login credentials to another person for a given task, you will be able to modify the password for that FTP account or to delete it altogether with just a couple of clicks of the mouse and avoid any risk of unauthorized access to your content from then on. For your convenience, all FTP accounts that you create will be listed in alphabetical order in the corresponding section of your Hepsia Control Panel.
