FTP denotes File Transfer Protocol – a rather popular method for transmitting website files between a home PC and a server. With an FTP program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can establish a connection to the server and see its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be shown in another pane within the main program window. All you’ll need to do to send files or entire directories in either direction is to mark them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is used by many users because you can create different FTP accounts and each one can be restricted to connect to just one single directory on the server, so a designer, for example, can carry out their task without accessing any other content in your hosting account. What’s more, the availability of different FTP accounts will also allow you to build multiple websites with web design apps like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their specific folders on the server.
