FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol – a quite popular method of sending web files between a computer system and a web server. With an FTP software program such as FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can set up a connection to the server and view its content in one pane, while the files on your computer will be shown in another pane within the program window. All you’ll need to do to send files or entire folders in either direction is to mark them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. FTP is used by numerous users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each one can be limited to connect to just one directory on the server, so a designer, for instance, can carry out their task without accessing any other content in the hosting account. Also, the availability of different FTP accounts will also enable you to create numerous Internet sites using web design applications like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their respective folders on the server.
