FTP FAQ - CuteFTP Support
What is FTP?
FTP is File Transfer Protocol, an internet protocol used
to transfer files on the Internet.
Whats the first step in setting up a website?
The first step is to get FTP access to your site, and
upload an initial file to the proper directory. This
initial file is generally named index.html, index.htm,
etc., and it is the web page that will be returned when
you call up www.yourdomainname.com
How do I access my website via FTP?
First, you will need an FTP program, such as: CuteFTP.
Available here:
www.cuteftp.com. After installation, run the
program, In the panel that comes up, enter a name, call
it anything you want, example: ftp.yourdomain.com. Then
in host address, put: ftp.yourdomain.com. In the user ID
field, put your User ID, this is usually the domain
name, then in the password field, carefully type your
password, as it is case sensitive. Click OK in the lower
left of the panel, and you will see your domain name in
the right hand panel, highlight it and click Connect,
lower right part of panel. If done properly, the program
will establish an FTP connection with your website and
take you to your directory. This is where you upload the
index.html file.
How do I upload/download files using CuteFTP?
The lower left panel is where your local files are on
your computer, the lower right panel is where the remote
website files are located. Everything is drop and drag,
to upload, drag the appropriate file from the left panel
to the right panel. To download a file from the server,
just reverse the process, drag the file from the server
at the lower right hand panel over to the lower left
panel.
Where do I put the index.html file?
When you open your ftp site (ftp.yourdomain.com) it
takes you to the correct directory, /www/userid This is
where you will place the index.html file. Also put all
your pictures and other files for you website in this
same directory or your /images directory.
