You can make use of separate FTP accounts to manage your web content if you’ve got a number of Internet sites within the same web hosting account. You can grant different persons access only to given directories, for example – web developers or IT professionals from the company, and be certain that they won’t be able to access any other directories or anything else within the hosting account, since the FTP accounts have limited access. Also, you can create and administer a number of different sites at the same time with a web design app like Dreamweaver or FrontPage (since these apps make use of FTP to establish a connection to the server) and upload the website files both when you create them and when you update them. A key part of doing these things is the option to create and manage your FTP accounts quickly and effortlessly.
FTP Manager in Shared Hosting
All our shared hosting plans come with a multi-function, albeit intuitive FTP Manager tool, which will allow you to manage all the FTP accounts that you have created with ease. The FTP Manager is included in our innovative Hepsia hosting Control Panel and aside from creating and removing accounts, you can modify the password for any existing account with just 2 clicks. You can change the level of access for any specific account just as easily – you will just have to click on the access path associated with the account and then to pick the new folder. Also, you can download an auto-config file for different FTP software applications and set up any of the FTP accounts on your computer by simply installing that file. For simpler and more effective management, you can sort the FTP accounts alphabetically on the basis of their usernames or their access paths.
FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you open a semi-dedicated server account with us, you will be able to take advantage of a number of options that are available in the FTP Manager section of our next-generation Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You can create a brand-new FTP account and select what directory it will access with just a few clicks of the mouse through an easy-to-work-with GUI. A list of all the FTP accounts that you’ve got will be available in the same section as well and, for your convenience, you can arrange them by access path or username in descending or ascending order, so you will be able to effortlessly find the account that you need. Modifying the access path for an existing account is as easy as clicking on it and choosing the new path, while deleting an account or editing its password requires a single click of the mouse as well. With the FTP Manager, you can also use configuration files for popular desktop FTP software apps such as CyberDuck and FileZilla.
