FTP, which is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol, represents the most popular means for sending files to a hosting account. With an FTP client application that’s installed on your desktop or laptop PC, you can set up a connection to your hosting server and copy all of the files that you want with a couple of clicks. This is done using a simple-to-work-with graphical interface and it is as simple as dragging and dropping the files in question. The advantage of using File Transfer Protocol is that you are able to create separate accounts, each with a different level of access to your web space, so if you’d like to give somebody access, for example – a web designer, they will be able to connect only to a specific folder and won’t be able to access the remaining content or any other information, such as personal details. Three prerequisites are compulsory in order to be able to set up an FTP connection – a hostname, which is normally an IP address or a domain, a user name and a password.

FTP Accounts in Cloud Web Hosting

You will be able to set up as many FTP accounts as you wish with each of the Linux cloud web hosting offered by us, since we have decided not to limit this service. Thus, you can maintain multiple sites all at once or provide other individuals with access to multiple directories. Once a specific job has been done and you don’t want that person to be able to connect to your files any longer, you can update the password for the FTP account in question or you can simply delete that account with a couple of clicks of the mouse and quit worrying about anyone connecting to it once again. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which is included with all website hosting accounts, will allow you to view the full list of the active FTP accounts listed in alphabetical order. It takes only one single click to manage different options for any of them – to edit the access path or the password, to download an auto-config file, etc.
