How do I access my website files with FTP? Print

First, you will need a FTP client like Filezilla to connect to your hosting server.

Once inside your cPanel, scroll to the icon titled 'FTP Accounts' and click it.

Here you will see any FTP accounts that are set up to connect to your hosting.

Once inside the 'FTP Accounts' page, you will see an icon titled 'Configure FTP Client'.

Click this icon and copy the following information...

1. Hostname: (typcially this is: ftp.yourdomain.com)
2. Port #: Your FTP client will typically figure this out automatically but it's still good to save it just in case.
3. Username: if you haven't set up a separate FTP account, then your user login will work as the default.
