| FTP Your
Files Back and Forth
If you are using a WYSIWYG editor (Dreamweaver is our favorite),
your FTP client may be built in. Otherwise, download a free version
from Download.com.
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. Typically, you will set
up a new site, give it a title and set up its properties. The local
directory is where you keep your working files on your computer.
The remote directory is where your files are served from. Your username
and password are assigned to you when you set-up hosting services
and typically came in an email sent to you at that time.
If you have issues using FTP to transfer your files, utilize your
host's technical support and write down every step. |
