FTP, which denotes File Transfer Protocol, is among the most widely used means of transmitting website files between a computer system and a web server. Using an FTP client such as FileZilla, you can establish a connection to your hosting account and drag ‘n’ drop files or entire directories in both directions and the software will handle the rest. There’re a number of pluses of employing FTP, among them the option to restart a download/upload when there’s some problem with the connection and the possibility to use different FTP accounts. With the latter option, you can set up FTP users that can access only certain folders in your web hosting account, but no other folders, emails or other information, which makes it the best option in case you need to give a web designer access, for example. You can also use an FTP account with famous website building tools such as Dreamweaver or FrontPage and upload the web content that you’ve created directly from them, without having to use any 3rd-party software.

In case you give the login info to some other person to do a particular task, you will be able to change the password for that FTP account or to delete it completely with just a couple of clicks of the mouse and avoid any risk of unauthorized access to your web content in the future.
