File Manager

I don't like using FTP, do you have a web-based file manager?

FAQ Answer

Yes! You require no FTP knowledge because we include a web-based file manager so you can update your site by simply filling out a form.

This is an excellent feature for those who are new to web development and hosting because it is very straightforward and simple to use compared with FTP.

To access your web-based file manager on a Linux plan do the following:

  • Login to the cPanel control panel included in your hosting account. The settings are provided in your setup email when you first order.
  • Open the Access Menu by clicking the button at the top of the page.
  • Click on "File Manager" which is the first option on the Access Menu.

Please remember when you are about to upload your website, you need to put it in the "public_html" directory. Open that directory and remove the existing "index.html" file which is our "holding" page. Upload your site, and you will see it when you enter your domain name.

Windows plans have their file manager available on the homepage in their Plesk control panel.
