The simplest way to provide a third-party with access to the web files in a certain folder is to create an FTP account and to set content access restrictions concerning your web space. In case you use the services of a web developer, for instance, they won’t be granted access to any other files or any sensitive info in your hosting account. You can also create separate FTP accounts to maintain a number of sites created with a desktop web design app like FrontPage or Dreamweaver – each website can be published on the Internet and subsequently updated using an FTP account with access to its own website folder on the server. All these things will be possible as long as you’re able to create and administer your FTP accounts easily.

FTP Manager in Shared Website Hosting

When you you open a shared website hosting account with our company, you will receive access to the powerful FTP Manager tool, which is an integral part of our custom-developed Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. The tool includes a number of different options, aside from the possibility to create or remove FTP accounts. You’ll be able to check the access path associated with each account and by clicking on it, you can alter it so that the account will access a separate directory. Auto-config files are available for download as well, so you will not need to set up anything manually – you can just download the respective file for CyberDuck, Core FTP or FileZilla and run it on your computer. To make the management easier, the FTP Manager will permit you to view all the FTP accounts that you have created in alphabetical order, on the basis of either the access path or the username.

FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server configurations are managed from the easy-to-use, custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel. One of its sections, the FTP Manager, is dedicated to administering your FTP accounts and anything related to them, so you can manage all the accounts swiftly and seamlessly. It will take a single click to create a new account, to delete an existing one or simply to change its password. You can also see the full list of your accounts in this section of the Control Panel and, for your convenience, you can arrange them in alphabetical order – ascending or descending, either by username or by their access path. Changing the path for a specific account is also amazingly easy – you only need to click on it and choose the new directory in the pop-up window that will show up, so you won’t have to set up a brand new FTP account in case you simply wish to define what files an existing account can access. You can also use auto-config files for popular FTP software applications like FileZilla and Core FTP.
