FTP (short for File Transfer Protocol), is one of the most commonly used means for transmitting files between a PC and a server. Using an FTP client such as FileZilla, you can set up a connection to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or whole directories in either direction and the software itself will do all the rest. There are a number of pros of employing FTP, including the possibility to resume a download/upload when there is a problem with the FTP connection and the possibility to use different FTP accounts. Thanks to the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only particular folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, emails or any other information, which makes it the best solution in case you have to provide a web designer with access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with popular website building tools like FrontPage or Dreamweaver and upload the web content that you have created directly from them, without the need to use any 3rd-party software.
