FTP, which denotes File Transfer Protocol, is the most famous means of uploading website files to a hosting account. Using FTP software that’s installed on your desktop PC or laptop, you can set up a connection to your website hosting server and copy all the files that you want with several clicks of the mouse. This is done using a simple-to-use graphical interface and it is as simple as dragging ‘n’ dropping the aforementioned files. The advantage of using FTP is the fact that you’ll be able to create different FTP accounts, each with a different level of access to your online storage space, so if you would like to provide someone with access, for instance – a designer, they will be able to connect only to a specific directory and will not be able to access the rest of your content or any other information, such as private details. Three things are required to be able to make an FTP connection – a hostname, which is normally an IP or a domain name, a user name and a password.
