FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, is among the most commonly used methods of exchanging web files between a computer system and a server. With an FTP software program like FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your web hosting account and drag & drop files or whole directories in both directions and the software itself will take care of all the rest. There’re several pros of employing File Transfer Protocol, including the option to restart an upload/download when there’s a problem with the connection and the possibility to set up different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only certain folders in your hosting account, but no other folders, emails or other information, which makes it the ideal solution particularly in case you need to grant a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular apps like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the sites that you have created directly from them, without having to make use of any third-party software.
FTP Accounts in Cloud Website Hosting
Setting up and managing multiple FTP accounts will be pretty easy with any of our cloud website hosting plans. This functionality is not limited, so using our easy-to-navigate Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll be able to create as many accounts as you need to administer your sites and to get your web-related tasks completed. If you hire a developer and they’re done with the site, for example, you can edit the FTP password or delete the whole FTP account with only one single click via the Control Panel. For the sake of convenience, you will be able to view a list of all the accounts that you’ve set up and what folders they can connect to. Useful functions such as changing the password or the access path and downloading an auto-config file for commonly used FTP clients are also just a mouse click away.
