FTP Accounts
Learn about FTP accounts and about FTP as a whole - exactly what they are and when you will be needing them.
FTP (short for File Transfer Protocol), represents one of the most famous methods for sending files between a computer system and a web server. Using FTP software like FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your web hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software itself will do all the rest. There’re a number of benefits of employing File Transfer Protocol, including the ability to restart a download/upload when there’s a problem with the FTP connection or the possibility to create different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only specific folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, emails or any other information, which makes it the perfect option especially when you need to give a web designer access, for instance. You can also use an FTP account with popular web design apps such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the website content that you’ve created straight from them, without having to use any third-party software.
