FTP (File transport protocol) – is a protocol for transferring files to the server storage. To work with FTP, you need to have special software (FTP client). You can have it installed on your computer or you can access the content on your web host via an FTP web interface.
Create an FTP account
Before logging into FTP for the first time, you need to create an FTP account. The FTP account credentials for your host represent the basic access to the source files on your website, along with the said FTP client. You can create data for yourself or send the data directly from WebAdmin to the desired e-mail.
