For an updated FTP tutorial, see here: http://zymic.com/knowledge-base/ftp.html


With each free web hosting account, you will have access to FTP. FTP stands for "File Transfer Protocol" and is the best choice to use for managing your websites files.

To begin with you will need an FTP client, I use FlashFXP, however you may download Filezilla which is free (open-source) and easy to use:
http://filezilla-project.org/

Once downloaded, install and open FileZilla. Here is what it looks like:



In order to connect to FTP, you will need the following information (also included in your registration email):
  • Your website address (e.g. ftpupload.99k.org - without any www. or http)
  • Username (This is slightly different for FTP, it is your username followed by an underscore and your subdomain, so: ftpupload_99k, EXCEPT for vndv and uuuq domains. For ftpupload.vndv.com or ftpupload.uuuq.com, your username is ftpupload)
  • Password
Now simply enter in your details into the top connection panel, followed by entering in port 21 like so:



And then hit "Quick Connect", if you have entered in your details correctly, you should be connected.

Now simply upload files from your hard-drive to FTP. To do so use the left panels to browse through your files, for example I want to upload test.txt which is located on my desktop. I right clicked it and selected "Upload"



The file will now be uploaded to your site, e.g. ftpupload.99k.org/test.txt

You may also create new folders, to do so simply right click in the right panel like so:



You can also change file permissions by right clicking and selecting "File Attributes".

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Wow jack, this is by far the best tutorial for FTP I've ever seen - nice work. FileZilla is great, I've been using it for a good 2 years now (I think, yeah?)

*EDIT* Don't worry. Fixed it. Had to update my filezilla =]

Yes it's very nice but there are problems with some file extensions. I can't upload .shtml files. And if i upload a .htacces file i cant rename or remove it! So now i have 2 .htacces files and i don't want them! So maby you can fix the problems with the file extensions? smile.gif

Either your not inputing a port, The server is down, Or your Computer/Internet is laggy
If it's your computer Shut down programs that use bandwidth and
Click Start -> run -> Type: Ipconfig /flushDNS
This will flush your DNS (kinda cleaning it up and makeing it faster. This is Safe concerting your Computer Runs this command When it reboots

If it's your internet..... well your SOL unless you upgrade Change the setting on both your router and/or computer. or switch ISP
