The simplest way to give a third-party access to the files in a certain directory is to create an FTP account and to set content access restrictions in regards to your hosting space. If you use the services of a web developer, for example, they won’t get access to any other files or any personal data within your account. You can also use separate FTP accounts to manage a number of websites created with a desktop web design app such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage – each site can be published online and later edited using an FTP account that has access to its very own site folder on the server. All these things will be possible on the condition that you are able to create and manage your FTP accounts easily.

FTP Manager in Cloud Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with each of our cloud hosting plans, offers a function-rich FTP Manager tool that will give you full control over all FTP accounts within your hosting account. Creating or deleting an account takes literally just one single mouse click and all the accounts that you’ve got at any particular moment will be displayed alphabetically, so you can effortlessly find the one that you need. You will also be able to see what directory a given account can access and by clicking on it, you can change it. If you want to connect to your web space using an FTP software application such as FileZilla or Core FTP, you can download an auto-config file for any of the FTP accounts and install it on your PC – that account will be configured without you needing to do anything manually yourself. Moreover, you can see the full list of all the domains or sub-domains that you’re able to use.

FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

All our semi-dedicated server plans come with the multifunction Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, which includes our FTP Manager tool. It will provide you with all the controls that you may need in order to administer your FTP accounts seamlessly from one single location. It takes one single click to create or to remove an account and, with two more mouse clicks, you can edit the folder that this account can connect to. In case you create a huge number of accounts, you can choose how many of them will be displayed on one page and whether they should be listed in ascending or descending order on the basis of their access paths and usernames. Downloadable auto-configuration files will allow you to configure an FTP program such as FileZilla or Core FTP to access any of your accounts without having to do anything manually.
