FTP Tutorial

What is FTP?

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a fast and convenient way to transfer files over the Internet. That’s why many webmasters use FTP for uploading their websites files on their hosting accounts.

This tutorial will show you how to use FileZilla to upload your website. FileZilla is a powerful and free software for transferring files over the Internet. FileZilla is a very popular FTP client and is used by webmasters from all over the world. Here you can download FileZilla software.

Once you have the FileZilla client downloaded and activated on your computer, enter the domain name in the address field (you can also use the server’s IP address). The username and the password you need to type in are the same as the ones you use to log in to your cPanel. The FTP port is 21 and is filled in automatically.

Click Quickconnect and the file listing will appear. Find the www (it is a symbolic link to public_html) directory and double click on it.

Then, select the files to be uploaded and drag-and-drop them under the www folder. Wait for the transfer to be completed.[review]
