Create an FTP account and upload your website files
Make a dedicated FTP login and publish files with FileZilla or the cPanel File Manager.
FTP lets you move files between your computer and your hosting space. A separate FTP user for each person means you can remove access later without changing your main password.
Add the FTP user
- In cPanel open FTP Accounts.
- Enter a login name and a strong password.
- Set the directory. Use
public_htmlfor the main website. - Click Create FTP Account.
Connect with FileZilla
- Open FileZilla and fill in Host (your domain), Username, Password and Port 21.
- Press Quickconnect and accept the certificate if asked.
- Drag your files from the left panel to
public_htmlon the right.
Tip: No FTP program installed? Use File Manager in cPanel and the Upload button. It works in any browser.
