    For analytical I am not sure but for ftp you can go into cpanel and make a new ftp account easy

    For FTP A/C pls follow what crivion and crazycjcool1 suggested. Few days ago I read that Google Analytic does not support multiple user A/C.

    Set up Google analytics and activate the user manager giving away the limited access to your designer

    If you dont trust your website designer with access to your website, you probably shouldn't have hired him.

    more importantly, why would a designer require access to analytics?

    for analytics you just have to give him the link and the password. I agree with InputProduction about trusting your designer.
