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

  1. In cPanel open FTP Accounts.
  2. Enter a login name and a strong password.
  3. Set the directory. Use public_html for the main website.
  4. Click Create FTP Account.

Connect with FileZilla

  1. Open FileZilla and fill in Host (your domain), Username, Password and Port 21.
  2. Press Quickconnect and accept the certificate if asked.
  3. Drag your files from the left panel to public_html on the right.

Tip: No FTP program installed? Use File Manager in cPanel and the Upload button. It works in any browser.
