FTP, which is an abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol, is one of the most popular means for transmitting files between a computer system and a server. With an FTP program such as FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your web hosting account and drag & drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software itself will cope with the rest. There are a number of benefits of employing File Transfer Protocol, including the ability to resume a download/upload if there’s a problem with the connection and the option to create different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can create FTP users that can connect only to certain folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, email accounts or any other information, which makes it the very best option if you have to grant a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with famous web design apps such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the websites that you’ve created straight from them, without the need to make use of 3rd-party software.
