For fairly simple, inexpensive, fantastic support web hosting you cannot
go wrong with:
https://www.knthost.com/
Full disclosure: I am a customer. Most of my web clients are customers.
Been dealing with them since 2010 -- probably much earlier.

Dunno what your work platform is, but with linux I use sftp in konqueror
using a split window and move 'objects', or groups of objects from one
location to the other. To move an entire web site, I might use `rsync`.

With knthost.com you get both SFTP and SSH.
Tho', Murphy gets Really Excited when you log into
a web site with the command line. heh... How do I know?
