Configuration for some commonly used ftp clients

To upload your site files to your hosting, you must use a FTP (File Transfer Protocol).

To configure it, you will need the following credentials, which you can find in your hosting activation email:

• Hosting connection
• Log in
• Password

Once connected, in the administration panel you will find the following folders:

• www: intended for the website, including any ASP 3.0, ASP.NET and PHP pages;
• script: intended for any CGI script;
• data: directory, not accessible by users, in which is inserted databases or sensitive data files accessible only through scripts;
• log files: in this directory, the log files of the previous days are published to allow for possible local storage and/or consultation.

Following, are brief configuration guides for the most common and most used client FTP:

CUTEFTP
Recommended but there is a fee.

FILEZILLA
