FTP File Transfer Protocol

SWPP Photographic Glossary

FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, is a standard method for transferring files and data over a network. Photographers, web designers, and developers commonly use FTP programs to upload web pages, images, and other digital files from a local computer to a web server so they can be accessed online.

Using FTP ensures efficient and secure transfer of large files, including high-resolution photographs and multimedia content. Understanding FTP is essential for managing websites, sharing portfolios, and maintaining professional digital workflows in photography and online publishing.
