I created this simple script to FTP data to another server:

#!/bin/sh -vx

# Script to FTP data to server
# Paramters:    host            FTP Server
#                     user            FTP Username
#                     passwd      FTP Password
#                     file             File to send/put
############################################################################

# Variables
HOST=$1
USER=$2
PASSWD=$3
FILE=$4
TONAME=$5

# Connect to FTP HOST and Send File
ftp -n $HOST <<END_SCRIPT
    quote USER $USER
    quote PASS $PASSWD
    dir
    ascii
    put $FILE $TONAME
   dir
   quit
END_SCRIPT
exit 0

Usage:

# ./ftpscript <host> <username> <passwd> <filename> <toname>

Example:

# ./ftpscript 127.0.0.1 jordan SomePass /var/log/messages /upload/messages.txt

Interesting. Is there no wput (opposite of wget) command?

Yes, there is but it doesn't come "stock" on any Linux distro that I know of. Home of wput

What do you mean with "stock", you mean out-of-the-box?

Yes I believe that is what he meant. "stock" is a term often used in English/America that means exactly like you stated: out-of-the-box with no enhancements.
