The easiest way to provide a third-party with access to the files in a specific folder is to set up an FTP account and to specify content access limits regarding your web space. If you use the services of a web designer, for instance, they won’t acquire access to any other content or any private info within your web hosting account. You can also create multiple FTP accounts to manage different Internet sites created with a desktop web design application like Dreamweaver or FrontPage – each site can be brought online and then updated using an FTP account with access to its very own website folder on the hosting server. All these things will be possible as long as you’re able to create and manage your FTP accounts with ease.

FTP Manager in Hosting

When you you open a hosting account with us, you’ll obtain access to the amazingly powerful FTP Manager tool, that is an integral part of our in-house built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. The tool includes a number of different options, aside from the ability to set up or delete FTP accounts. You will be able to view the access path associated with each account and by clicking it, you can change it so that the account in question will access a separate folder. Auto-config files can be downloaded too, so you will not need to configure anything manually – you can simply download the respective file for Core FTP, FileZilla or CyberDuck and run it on your computer. To make the administration easier, the FTP Manager will allow you to see all the accounts that you have set up in alphabetical order, on the basis of either the username or the access path.

FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are administered via the easy-to-navigate, custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel. One of its sections – the FTP Manager, is dedicated to managing your FTP accounts and anything related to them, so you’ll be able to manage all the accounts quickly and seamlessly. It will take a single click of the mouse to set up a new FTP account, to remove an active one or simply to change its password. You can also see the full list of all your accounts in this section of the Control Panel and, for convenience’s sake, you can arrange them in alphabetical order – ascending or descending, either by their access path or by username. Modifying the path for a given account is also very easy – you will only need to click on it and pick the new folder in the pop-up that will show up, so you will not need to create a whole new account in case you simply want to define what website files an existing one can access. You can also make use of auto-config files for widespread FTP programs like FileZilla and Core FTP.
