The easiest way to provide a third-party with access to the web files in a certain directory is to set up an FTP account and to set website content access limits regarding your hosting space. In case you use the services of a web designer, for example, they won’t be provided with access to any other files or any private data in your hosting account. You can also create multiple FTP accounts to run a number of Internet sites built with a desktop web design app like FrontPage or Dreamweaver – each website can be published online and later modified using an FTP account that has access to its very own domain folder on the hosting server. All these things will be possible provided that you’re able to set up and administer your FTP accounts with ease.
FTP Manager in Shared Hosting
The Hepsia Control Panel, which is included with each of our Linux shared hosting, offers a functionality-rich FTP Manager tool that will grant you full control over all FTP accounts within your web hosting account. Setting up or removing an account requires literally only one mouse click and all the accounts that you’ve got at a particular moment will be listed alphabetically, so you can quickly locate the one that you need. You’ll also be able to check what directory a specific account can access and by clicking it, you can change it. In case you’d like to connect to your web space using an FTP client application like Core FTP or FileZilla, you can download an auto-configuration file for any of the FTP accounts and install it on your PC – the account in question will be configured without you having to do anything manually yourself. Additionally, you can view a list of all the domains or sub-domains which you can use.
FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
All our semi-dedicated server plans come with the feature-loaded Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, which includes our FTP Manager tool. It will give you all the controls that you might need to administer your FTP accounts without efforts from a single place. It takes one click of the mouse to create or to remove an account and, with 2 more clicks of the mouse, you can edit the directory that can be accessed by this account. If you create a large number of FTP accounts, you can select how many of them will be shown on one page and if they should be listed in descending or ascending order based on their access paths and usernames. Downloadable auto-configuration files will allow you to set up an FTP software program like FileZilla or Core FTP to access any of your accounts without having to do anything manually on your end.
