FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, represents one of the most widespread means of sending website files between a PC and a web server. Using FTP software such as FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your hosting account and drag & drop files or whole folders in both directions and the software will do all the rest. There are a number of advantages of using File Transfer Protocol, among them the ability to restart a download/upload when there’s some problem with the connection and the option to have different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, email accounts or other information, which makes it the perfect option when you have to provide a web designer with access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with famous website building applications like Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the web content that you’ve created directly from them, without having to resort to 3rd-party software.

FTP Accounts in VPS Servers

The VPS server plans that we offer will enable you to set up an unlimited number of FTP accounts to administer the content of your websites. This is valid regardless of which Virtual Private Server package you get and which Control Panel you pick during the server order process – Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel. In any case, you will be given FTP access to the server without the need to install any kind of software, since an FTP server is an essential part of the standard software suite that is included in the Virtual Private Server packages by default. You can create one FTP account for every domain or sub-domain that you have registered or even several FTP accounts for one single folder – in case you want several users to access the website content inside it with their own set of log-in credentials. With any of the offered Control Panels, setting up, removing or editing an FTP account requires no more than a couple of clicks through an easy-to-use GUI.
