FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol – a rather popular way to transfer files between a home PC and a server. With an FTP program like CuteFTP or FileZilla, you can establish a connection to the server and view its content in one pane, while the files on your PC will be shown in another pane within the main program window. All you’ll have to do to send files or whole folders in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. FTP is preferred by many users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each one can be limited to access just one folder on the server, so a designer, for example, can fulfill their job without being able to access any other folder in the website hosting account. Furthermore, the availability of different FTP accounts will also enable you to create numerous sites using web design apps such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their respective directories on the server.
