It depends on what you want to do. I never use a built in FTP client. They are always an afterthought to the development team. Having been on many, many beta's of software this is an area that never receives any work to make better. I use several different web development tools on a single site so I always access the folder and never use a closed folder to develop a site just a work flow issue for me I use the best tool for the task approach.:)

If I am going to export the site then I may as well just use the built in ftp because it will take just as long.

I am aware of FTP and what it does. Before I started using sandvox I used fetch to upload web pages. I still have it on my computer and it is an SFTP program. I am hoping Ed will be able to help me use Transmit or Fetch to upload my websites outside of the Sandvox Application. Thanks for your input.

"You may or may not have heard the term, FTP [def.]<http://personalweb.about.com/cs/glossary/g/ftp.htm>, but it is something that can come in handy when creating a Web site. FTP is an acronym that stands for File Transfer Protocol. An FTP client is a program that allows you to easily move files from one computer to another. In the case of creating a Web site, this means that if you create the pages for your site on your computer, either using a text editor or some other Web page editor, then you will need to move it to the server where your site will be hosted. FTP is the main way to do this. There are many different FTP clients<http://personalweb.about.com/od/ftpfileuploadprograms/> that you can download from the Internet. Some of these can be downloaded for free<http://personalweb.about.com/library/weekly/aa111300b.htm> and others on a try before you buy basis."

I have found that the FTP programs in Web creation tools are always bad and troublesome. I use Dreamweaver and people complain all the time about the same issues you are complaining about slowness. Transmit is done in seconds all the time. I update webpages daily and hate waiting for uploads. Never use the FTP of a Web creation tool they are junk. :) On May 11, 2013, at 1:58 PM, Harry Jacobson-Beyer <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: I use a website creation program called Sandvox. It uploads the files automatically. The one that takes so long has lots of pages and photos and interconnections and everytime I add something because things are interconnected it has to upload the whole shebang!

I use http://panic.com/transmit/ You can sync you website folder and just change the parts of the page that have been changed. This cuts way down on the time it takes to upload a page. It's the best. - Sent from Mailbox<https://bit.ly/SZvoJe> for iPhone On Sat, May 11, 2013 at 1:12 PM, Harry Jacobson-Beyer <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: So what I found out is "all things are not equal." Do you think users will ever demand symmetry in their internet connections? While the download speed is admirable with Uverse I would really like more upload speed. I have a couple of web pages that take forever to upload. Thanks Ed.
