Follow these instructions to upload new or modified files to your website using FileZilla.

Instructions:

Open FileZilla (usually found in Commencement -> Programs -> Cyberspace -> FileZilla)
Click on the File carte, and select Site Managing director.
Select your site from the list and click the Connect push. The Site Manager window will shut and FileZilla will connect to your website. Your window will now expect similar to the one shown below. Y'all'll know that you lot've connected successfully if y'all see your domain name listed in the right hand window pane (the surface area highlighted above in cherry-red).

You're now gear up to upload documents. First, withal, we need to navigate to the appropriate folder on the web site where your documents will be stored. To do this, start by double clicking on your domain proper name in the correct hand pane. This will motion inside that binder (ie: modify directory) and your view will modify to evidence the contents of that folder.

Most domains have but i subfolder (world wide web) simply boosted ones may be requested if required.

Here is an example construction to show you how things are laid out:

mydomain.com (your parent domain name)
	www (represents world wide web.mydomain.com)
		html	contains the files for http://www.mydomain.com This is where you must upload files you want to announced at http://www.mydomain.com
		log	contains web server log files for world wide web.mydomain.com

The html folder in each subfolder represents the contents of that website.

If y'all instead uploaded proposal.doc into the html binder of the enquiry subfolder, it would be available at http://inquiry.mydomain.com/proposal.doc.
