Here are some simple instructions for setting up an FTP account in Cpanel. Just go with the flow.
Step-1: With your username and password, log in to your webhosting cPanel.
Step-2: After logging into your webhosting cPanel account, go to the Files area and click on the FTP Account option.
Step-3: In each field, you must enter in the FTP Account information. Check out the descriptions for each field below.
# Login: For the FTP Account, enter your login. It will be combined with your primary domain name to generate a full username. If you type testweb in the login area, for example, your entire username will be testweb@faqs.info.
# Password: For your FTP account, you should use a strong and secure password. Create a unique password using the Password Generator.

# Strength: You can find out how safe your password is here. The strength levels, which range from Very Weak to Very Strong, will aid you in your decision.
# Directory: Your FTP account will only be able to access the directory you specify in this section. cPanel will auto-fill an assumed directory based on the FTP username. After public html/, remove everything and specify the directory you wish the user to access.

# Quota: You can grant a certain amount of disc space to an FTP user or leave it at Unlimited.
# Please Note: You have control over a user's level of access. The FTP user will be unable to travel outside of the defined directory as a result of this. However, the user will have access to all of the folder's files and subfolders.
