The easiest way to give a third-party access to the web files in a specific folder is to set up an FTP account and to set content access limits concerning your web hosting space. In case you use the services of a web designer, for example, they will not gain access to any other files or any sensitive information in your account. You can also create multiple FTP accounts to maintain different websites created with a desktop web design app such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver – each site can be published and then modified using an FTP account that has access to its own domain folder on the server. All these things will be possible provided that you are able to set up and administer your FTP accounts without hassles.
FTP Manager in Shared Hosting
All our shared hosting packages include a functionality-rich, yet simple-to-use FTP Manager, which will allow you to administer all the FTP accounts that you’ve created without hassle. The FTP Manager is included in our leading-edge Hepsia Control Panel and aside from creating and removing FTP accounts, you’ll be able to edit the password associated with any existing account with just 2 clicks of the mouse. You can modify the access level for any given account just as easily – you will just have to click on the access path associated with the account and then to pick the new directory. In addition, you can download an auto-configuration file for various FTP software apps and configure any of the FTP accounts on your computer simply by running that file. For easier and more effective management, you can arrange the accounts in alphabetical order on the basis of their usernames or their access paths.
