Before starting to upload your files please make sure you changed name servers for your domain name to the ones provided in your welcome email.
Files can be uploaded to the server by FTP. FTP is a file transfer protocol for exchanging and manipulating files over any TCP-based computer network. FTP is a popular choice for exchanging files independent of the operating systems involved.
There are three possible ways to use FTP:
• File Manager in your cPanel. Please refer to How to use the File Manager article for more information
• FTP client. For ftp client the following records should be:
server address: server_IP or yourdomain.com
username: username@domain.name
password:
mode: passive
• Web-based FTP client. You may use ftp://username:password@server’sIP for browser and mange your files this way.
Below you can find detailed information concerning 2 main directories:
/home/your_username/ - This is your home directory. All of your files are stored within this directory. Files placed directly in this directory will not be visible on the internet. You will start out in your home when you are connected by FTP.
/home/your_username/public_html/ - The public_html directory contains the files for your site. Files in public_html will be visible to public in the internet. Please make sure you have index page in your public_html directory. When creating your index page, you should use one of the following names: index.htm, index.html, index.php, home.htm, etc.
