Category: Choosing a Host

Pick hosts supporting FTP protocols like SFTP or FTPS for secure file transfers Bluehost includes FTP in cPanel for Ubuntu hosting while AWS supports SFTP on Linux VPS with vsftpd Check their features for \"FTP accounts\" or \"SFTP enabled\"—plain FTP is insecure so prioritize encrypted options On Windows VPS ensure IIS FTP is available (test with
ftp ip
in CMD) Confirm bandwidth limits (e g 5TB/month) to handle large uploads without throttling A good host offers unlimited FTP users and integrates with control panels for easy setup reducing reliance on CLI like
ftp user@host
