FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol – en extremely popular method for uploading and downloading files between a computer system and a web server. With an FTP client program like CuteFTP or FileZilla, you can establish a connection to the server and view its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be shown in another pane within the program window. All you will 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. FTP is preferred by lots of users because you can create different FTP accounts and each one can be limited to connect to just one single folder on the server, so a web designer, for instance, can complete their task without being able to access any other content in your website hosting account. In addition, the availability of different FTP accounts will also allow you to create numerous websites with web design applications such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their corresponding directories on the server.
