FTP Support

How do I upload pages to the server?

To upload your website to the server you will need an FTP client installed on your computer. There are many FTP clients available on the market and many web design packages such as Adobe, formally Macromedia's Dreamweaver and Microsoft's FrontPage now come bundled with FTP programs.

If you have not got an FTP client installed on your system we recommend that you download an evaluation version of any of the following:

• WS_FTP (http://www.ipswitch.com)
• Cute FTP (http://www.cuteftp.com)
• SmartFTP (http://www.smartftp.com)

Or a free copy of FileZilla (http://filezilla-project.org).

We have prepared some tutorials using WS_FTP. All FTP clients work in a similar way. If you have any specific questions about your client, please contact auto-support@firstserv.com.

HTML Version:

• Configuring your site in WS_FTP
• Create a new site
• Deleting an existing site
• Modify an existing site

We have produced a series of Flash tutorials covering most aspects of FTP. If you have any specific requests not covered by these tutorials, please contact auto-support@firstserv.com.
