How to upload files using the FileZilla FTP client

Once you have the FileZilla client downloaded and activated on your computer, enter your domain name in the Host field or you can use the account's IP address. The username and the password you need to type in are the same as the ones you use to log in to your cPanel. The FTP port is 21. Then, to connect, press the Quickconnect button.

 

You will be connected to your hosting account and on the right side of the FTP client window you will see a list of all the files and folders on your account.

 

From the right panel of the FTP client navigate to the folder on your account in which you want to upload the new files, for example - public_html.

 

Then, select one or more files from the left side panel (your computer) to be uploaded and right click on them. From the menu that shows up, click the Upload button.

 

The transfer will automatically be initiated, which will be indicated at the bottom panel of the application.
