What is FTP and How Do I Do it?... FTP = File Transfer Protocol FTP enables you to download (or upload) files such as web pages or working data to your FTP server and internet server. To acces your server you will need an FTP program such as WS-FTP [click here]and login access information for your server. Note: If you do not already have your User Name and Password please contact your WebInSite representative for it. ZDNET.com offers a free WS-FTP for download. Simply pull up http://www.zdnet.com in your internet browser and click the Downloads link at the top of the page then Search the download area for " WS-FTP " (only one WS-FTP ever pulls up). Note: You may have to register to access the Downloads. Once you find and download the program to your computer (make sure to note where you download the file on your hard drive) you must install the program, follow the instructions provided where you downloaded your FTP program. Once installed: Open the program and set up your site information so that you can connect to your server.
