FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol – a rather popular way to upload and download files between a home PC and a server. With an FTP program like FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can make a connection to the server and see its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be displayed in another pane within the program window. All you need to do to send files or entire folders in either direction is to select them and then to drag them from one pane to the other. File Transfer Protocol is used by a lot of users because you can create different FTP accounts and each one can be limited to connect to just one single directory on the server, so a web designer, for example, can carry out their task without accessing any other content in your website hosting account. What’s more, the availability of different FTP accounts will also permit you to build multiple websites using web design apps such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and to upload them to their respective folders on the server.

For the sake of convenience, you will be able to see a list of all the accounts that you have set up and what directories they can access. Handy functions such as modifying the path or the password and downloading an auto-configuration file for commonly used FTP applications are also only a mouse click away.
