FTP Accounts
Find out about FTP accounts as well as about FTP as a whole - exactly what they are and when you will be needing them.
FTP denotes File Transfer Protocol – a pretty popular method for exchanging web files between a home computer and a web server. With an FTP software program such as FileZilla or CuteFTP, you can connect to the server and see its content in one pane, whereas the files on your computer will be shown in another pane within the program window. All you will need 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 directory on the server, so a designer, for instance, can complete their job without being able to access any other content in the hosting account. Furthermore, the presence of different FTP accounts will also permit you to build numerous sites using web design tools like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and to upload them to their specific directories on the server.
