The simplest way to give a third-party access to the web files in a particular folder is to set up an FTP account and to specify website content access limits concerning your hosting space. In case you use the services of a web designer, for example, they will not be provided with access to any other content or any private info within your hosting account. You can also create separate FTP accounts to manage a number of websites built with a desktop web design application like FrontPage or Dreamweaver – each website can be brought online and subsequently updated using an FTP account with access to its very own website folder on the hosting server. All these things will be possible provided that you’re able to set up and administer your FTP accounts easily.

FTP Manager in Shared Website Hosting

The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with all our shared website hosting, offers a functionality-loaded FTP Manager tool that will grant you total control over all FTP accounts within your web hosting account. Setting up or removing an account requires literally just a single click of the mouse and all the accounts that you have at a particular time will be shown in alphabetical order, so you can effortlessly locate the one that you want. You’ll also be able to check what folder an account can connect to and by clicking it, you can change it. If you wish to connect to your web space using an FTP client app like Core FTP or FileZilla, you can download an auto-config file for any of the FTP accounts and install it on your personal computer – the account in question will be configured without you having to do anything manually yourself. Besides, you can view the full list of all the domains or subdomains that you can use.

FTP Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server configurations are managed through the simple-to-work-with, in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel. One of its sections – the FTP Manager, is dedicated to administering your FTP accounts and everything associated with them, so you will be able to manage all the accounts quickly and easily. It will take one click to set up a brand new account, to remove an active one or simply to change its password. You can also see the complete list of all your FTP accounts in this Control Panel section 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 certain account is also amazingly easy – you’ll simply need to click on it and choose the new directory in the pop-up that will appear, so you won’t need to set up a whole new account if you simply want to define what website files an existing one can access. You can also take advantage of auto-configuration files for commonly used FTP clients such as Core FTP and FileZilla.
