FTP, which is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol, represents one of the most famous means of transferring website files between a computer system and a web server. Using an FTP client program like FileZilla, you can establish a connection to your website hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire folders in either direction and the software will take care of all the rest. There are a number of pluses of using File Transfer Protocol, among them the possibility to resume a download/upload when there is a problem with the FTP connection or the option to create different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can create FTP users that can access only certain folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, e-mails or any other info, which makes it the ideal option in case you have to provide a web designer with access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with famous website building applications like Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the Internet sites that you have created straight from them, without having to resort to 3rd-party software.

FTP Accounts in Website Hosting

Each of the website hosting packages offered by our company will permit you to create an unlimited number of FTP accounts, so you will be able to manage the content of your websites separately or to grant other persons access to any site in your web hosting account. If you’ve got a web design application pre-installed on your computer, you’ll be able to administer multiple Internet sites simultaneously and to update them with ease. In case you provide the login information to some other individual to do a particular task, you will be able to modify the password for that FTP account or to remove it entirely with only a couple of clicks and prevent any possibility of unauthorized access to your website content in the future. For your convenience, all FTP accounts that you set up will be shown in alphabetical order in the respective section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel.
