Free FTP Sites for Personal Family Websites

In summary, an FTP site is a server where you can upload and manage files for your website. It is necessary for your website to be accessible to the public and for you to make updates to your site. There are several free FTP sites available for personal family websites, such as FileZilla, Cyberduck, and WinSCP. However, these free FTP sites may have limitations such as limited storage space and bandwidth, slower speeds, and less reliable server connections compared to paid options. They are also not suitable for managing databases, which will require a separate hosting service. To connect to a free FTP site, you will need to use an FTP client software and obtain the login credentials from your hosting provider.

i used to use smart ftp... and it was free..but now they charge...anyone able to recommend a FREE ftp site i can use for my personal family website.....?
 
If you use Firefox, there is an extension you can download called FireFTP. I liked Smart FTP and Cute FTP better, from what I can remember, but I liked the FREE aspect of FireFTP and once I got it set up, it has worked well.
 
Cute FTP was free as of last month. I've use it before.FileZilla is decent as well.
