Good FTP Programs

If you work on or have your own website, you will most likely need to edit files at times. Most hosting providers will allow you to edit your files from within the control panel.

However, at times you may want to upload a website you have created. You might also be uploading a opensource CMS system such as phpNuke,osCommerce,phpBB,etc.
So, you will need to have a FTP program. I personally use Filezilla, which is easy to configure and use.

When you transfer files you need to know what type(s) of files you are transferring. The two types of files to transfer are ASCII and Binary. ASCII are data files such as HTML,php,asp,etc. Binary is used for images.

Today, most FTP programs will also allow you to set the transfer type to automatic which allows the program to transfer the files correctly. This usually work 99.9% of the time, but like all things sometimes a file can get corrupted in transfer.

Some other FTP programsinclude SmartFTP, CoreFTP, and GoFTP.

Some of these FTP programsare free to use, while others will give you a trial download. Filezilla and AceFTP are totally free to use.

Blogging. Will it attract traffic to my site

Will adding a blog attract more traffic

This is a good question. Like many things though, it requires work. If you are going to add a blog, then most likely you will want to blog about subjects related to your site. Google considers subdomains to be like a separate domain from your main site.

So if your site is e.g. http://www.example.com, you could create a subdomain for your blog like e.g. http://blog.example.com. You could also name you subdirectory what your interests or the content is about like http://my-interests.example.com.

Like so many things when it comes to webmastering and web seo, results will not be overnight. More work is needed to make your blog visible to others and having it indexed by the search engine. To start, we would definately put a link on our homepage to the blog. We can also get it listed on such blog site as Technorati, My Blog Log, and Blog Catalog just to name a few.

Good content and having some expertise in your subject is what will attract visitors and also keep them coming back. Adding great articles is the main way to getting traffic. If your blog is good enough, people will also tell other people about your blog. So, just keep adding that content and watch the traffic increase.

A goog platform to use is Wordpress. Worpress is easy to install and configure. Wordpress also has tons of addons and themes that are easy to install.
