FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol – en extremely popular method for transferring files between a computer and a server. Using an FTP client program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can set up a connection to the server and see its content in one pane, whereas the files on your PC will be shown in another pane within the main program window. All you need to do to send files or whole directories in either direction is to mark them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is preferred by lots of users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each one can be restricted to access just one single directory on the server, so a designer, for instance, can carry out their task without being able to see any other content in the hosting account. What’s more, the availability of different FTP accounts will also permit you to build numerous websites using web design tools such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their corresponding directories on the server.
FTP Accounts in Shared Hosting
Our shared hosting packages will permit you to create numerous FTP accounts with just a few mouse clicks through the Hepsia Control Panel and to indicate what web files and folders each one can connect to. There is no upper limit on the total number of FTP accounts that you’re allowed to create, so you can have as many as you need at any particular time. In case you would not like to use a given FTP account any longer or if a web designer has completed their task and you do not want them to access the website content any longer, you can simply delete the account in question. The FTP section of the Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to check all currently active FTP accounts listed in alphabetical order, along with various options, which you can access with one single click of the mouse. You’ll be able to edit the password and the access path, to download an auto-configuration file, etcetera. We also have detailed help tutorials, which will help you manage your FTP accounts if you come across any difficulty.
