FTP is short for File Transfer Protocol – a quite popular way to transfer files between a home PC and a web server. With an FTP client program like CuteFTP or FileZilla, you can connect to the server and view its content in one pane, while the files on your PC will be displayed in another pane within the main program window. All you will need to do to send files or whole directories in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. FTP is used by many users because you can create different FTP accounts and each of them can be limited to connect to just one single folder on the server, so a web designer, for example, can carry out their task without being able to view any other folder in your hosting account. What’s more, the presence of different FTP accounts will also permit you to build multiple sites with web design tools like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their specific directories on the server.
