FTP, which stands for File Transfer Protocol, is one of the most famous methods of exchanging files between a computer and a web server. With an FTP software program such as FileZilla, you can connect to your website hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or whole directories in both directions and the software will cope with the rest. There’re a number of benefits of employing File Transfer Protocol, including the possibility to restart a download/upload when there is some problem with the connection or the possibility to use different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can create FTP users that can connect only to specific folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, e-mail accounts or other info, which makes it the perfect option in case you have to give a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular web design tools like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the web content that you have created straight from them, without having to resort to third-party software.
