Hosted FTP’s web interface allows a simple way to upload files to a Hosted FTP server. Using drag and drop, you can drag files directly from your computer’s folders, windows, and desktop to the web browser to select files.
Alternatively, you can use an FTP client to upload multiple files and folders.
