How to use FTP
There are three different ways to quickly establish an FTP connection, and they are:
Command line FTP
Having a bit of programming knowledge can be convenient for the user because there is command line FTP for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Many developers prefer this method over others to transfer their files over FTP.
Graphic FTP Programs
This approach works to simplify file transfer, as a user can easily drag and drop files from one window to another. In these programs, the user is required to provide an FTP server, username and password to access it.
Web browser
This approach is easy because users can use a web browser to connect to your FTP address. Many users prefer the web browser approach as it is easier and more beneficial to access large directories on a server. However, it is slightly slower and less reliable than a dedicated FTP program.Ā
