FTP Hosting for Beginners
A few folks have emailed me recently asking for my opinion on FTP hosting solutions.
Here's a nice "FTP Hosting for Beginners" overview.
I believe that a hosted FTP solution can be a good option for people who don't have a physical server to store files. A hosted server solution provides online file storage.... And many solution providers deliver pretty secure services today.
That being said, you will still need desktop FTP software to connect to your hosted server and transfer files from your PC to the server.
As the FTP Hosting article points out, "You will require FTP Software. All you need to do is - install the application, fill in details of site address, name and related information, and just connect. Once connection has been restored, you can easily upload files from your PC to the site and download the files from the site to the local drive of your computer.
WS FTP - As file transfer client software, it is the most popular. With the help of this secure software, you can quickly and easily manage all the digital information. It helps to compress files into .zip format during file transfer. It guarantees security of data with the help of 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) keys and SSL transfers."
