Upload
From Conservapedia
An upload is the act of sending files from a local workstation to a remote workstation.
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is the Internet facility for downloading and uploading files. (If you are uploading a file to another site, you must usually have permission in advance to access the site and the directory where the file is to be placed.)[1]

The opposite of this activity is called, downloading. Uploading is usually slower than downloading. This is due to the bottleneck at the modem.
