FTP are known as File Transfer Protocol, a standard network protocol that is used for transfer the files from a server to a client on a compuet network. To upload the files through FTP, you will need a particular
application called an FTP client. FileZilla is a free and open source. You can download it here:

Of course, you can use a different FTP client if you choose. To
connect with and FTP server, you need the following information:

·         FTP server address. The FTP address should be
ftp://your-domain-name.com, where your-domain-name.com is your site’s
Internet address.

·         FTP username. It is identical to your system username. Note that
the system username is different from the username that you use for
logging in to Plesk. To find what is the user name of your system, go to
Websites & Domains and click Web Hosting Access. You will
find it under 
Username. You can change username of your system if
you need.

·         FTP password. It is identical to user password of your system. If
you do not know what is the user password of your system , Visit the option  
Websites &
Domains
 and click Web Hosting Access. You can reset the
password under 
Password.

To publish a website using FTP:

1.      Using your FTP account username and password, connect to your subscription on the server with an FTP client program.

If you are at the back of a firewall, enable passive mode. Refer to your
FTP client documentation to understand how to enter passive mode.

2.      Upload the files and directories of your site to the httpdocs
directory. If you are using the  CGI scripts, put them in the 
cgi-bin
directory.

3.      Close your FTP session.

If you need to collaborate on website content with other users, you can also set up additional FTP accounts. For more updates, see the section Adding FTP Accounts.
