Uploading your website via FTP Print

  • 0

FTP is the classic way to upload files to your hosting. To connect you need an FTP client such as FileZilla (free) or Cyberduck.

Connection details:

  • Host: the hostname from your welcome email.
  • Username: your cPanel username.
  • Password: your cPanel password.
  • Port: 21 (FTP) or 22 (SFTP — recommended, encrypted).
  1. Open FileZilla and enter the details in the top bar.
  2. Click Quickconnect.
  3. Your website files must go inside the public_html/ folder.

If you manage several clients or large files, we recommend creating extra FTP users from cPanel and using SFTP whenever possible.
