When viewing or comparing the multiple features in the various plans offered by different web hosting companies, there’s one, among others, that many potential customers surely look for ... FTP Access. Ask any member of the friendly FatCow Moo Crew if FTP Access is provided in their unique, ‘one plan – one price’ package ... and the answer will be a resounding “Moo” (“Yes” for you).
But first, what is FTP? Who are FTP users? How can FatCow FTP help build your site? Here are answers to these often asked questions to enlighten you.
What is FTP?
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a useful feature that permits file downloading and uploading in a simpler and faster manner, by members of the public, to help them login without the need of identifying themselves. However, it is generally advisable to use “Anonymous” as the username. Alternatively, you may use either any other username as the password, or the FatCow FTP-provided password.
A FatCow FTP program is designed to make the lives of its web host customers a whole lot easier. For example, if you need to manage file transferring of any size, either from computer to computer or computer to server and vice versa, FatCow FTP will help you do this in a very simplified and swift manner.
Who are FTP users?
FTP users are specifically the logins who seek FTP access to the assigned directories available on different websites. For a ‘FTP-included’ plan, a primary FTP user account will be automatically set up. Moreover, if a part of your plan includes FTP users, a number of other users can also be added, and the FatCow Moo Crew is ever ready and available 24x7 via email, phone or chat to help you do so.
