How to FTP a File to Multiple Sites
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) makes it possible to upload files to an unlimited number of websites in a short time. The best way to FTP a file to multiple sites is with an FTP client. Although most Web hosting plans feature built-in FTP applications, the necessity to log in to each one individually slows down the process when dealing with more than one at a time. Certain FTP clients allow you to connect to multiple sites and hosts simultaneously to further speed up the process.

Connect to multiple sites with FileZilla. This free FTP client allows tabbed simultaneous connections for easy transfer of a single file to multiple sites. Once you enter the log in details of the sites you own into the connection manager, you may connect by choosing the site from the drop-down menu. To select the second site, just choose another site from the same menu and select the option to open it in a different tab. This may be done for as many sites as your Internet connection can handle. Once all of the sites are connected, drag and drop the file from the left pane into the desired location on each site.
