FTP Manager
What's an FTP Manager? How much useful is it when it comes to maintaining a web site?
The simplest way to grant a third-party access to the web files in a specific directory is to create an FTP account and to put content access restrictions concerning your web hosting space. If you use the services of a web designer, for example, they won’t be given access to any other files or any sensitive details within your web hosting account. You can also create multiple FTP accounts to run a number of sites created with a desktop web design app like FrontPage or Dreamweaver – each site can be published on the Internet and later updated using an FTP account that has access to its own website folder on the hosting server. All these things will be possible on the condition that you’re able to create and manage your FTP accounts seamlessly.

When you you open a
shared hosting account with us, you’ll be provided with access to the really powerful FTP Manager tool, that’s included in our custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel.

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 will access a different folder. Auto-config files are available for download as well, so you will not have to configure anything manually – you can simply download the specific file for CyberDuck, Core FTP or FileZilla and run it on your personal computer. To make the management itself simpler, the FTP Manager will permit you to see all the accounts that you have created in alphabetical order, on the basis of either the username or the access path.
