FTP is an abbreviation for File Transfer Protocol – en extremely popular method of transferring website files between a home PC and a web server. With an FTP client program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can set up a connection to the server and view its content in one pane, whereas the files on your PC will be shown in another pane within the program window. All you will have to do to send files or whole folders in either direction is to mark them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is preferred by many users because you can set up different FTP accounts and each of them can be limited to connect to just one single directory on the server, so a designer, for instance, can carry out their task without being able to see any other folder in your website hosting account. Also, the presence of different FTP accounts will also allow you to build numerous Internet sites with web design applications such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their corresponding directories on the server.
