FTP denotes File Transfer Protocol – en extremely popular way to upload and download website files between a home PC and a server. Using an FTP program such as FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can make a connection to the server and check its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be shown in another pane within the program window. All you’ll need to do to send files or entire directories in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is used by a lot of users because you can create different FTP accounts and each of them can be limited to access just one folder on the server, so a designer, for instance, can do their job without accessing any other directory in your website hosting account. In addition, the presence of different FTP accounts will also permit you to build multiple websites with web design tools such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their corresponding directories on the server.

FTP Accounts in Web Hosting

Each of the web hosting packages that we are offering will enable you to set up unlimited FTP accounts, so you will be able to manage the content of your websites separately or to give other persons access to any Internet site in your website hosting account. If you’ve got a web design program installed on your personal computer, you’ll be able to run numerous Internet sites at once and to keep them updated without any efforts. If you give the login details to some other individual for a given task, you will be able to modify the password for that FTP account or to delete it altogether with only a few clicks and avoid any risk of unsolicited access to your web content from then on. For your convenience, all FTP accounts that you create will be shown alphabetically in the respective section of your Hepsia Control Panel.
