Need Help With Uploading?
June 11th 2008 -
I know many of you guys will think this is ‘easy peasy’ but there are still many people who struggle with uploading files to their web space.
To give you all a guiding hand I have created a tutorial on this subject using one of the best FREE FTP clients around - SmartFTP.
SmartFTP is a great FREE FTP file transfer program that is very simple to use.
Using SmartFTP, I will show you how to transfer files to and from your web host in the easiest and quickest way possible, this is simple yet very effective, and best of all it’s FREE!
Here is a link to the tutorial - http://www.planet-divinity.com/tutorials/smart_ftp_tutorial
Uploading and downloading to and from your web host is a lot easier than many people think and it is very useful if you are just starting out and need to do a lot of ‘trial and error’ testing.
Make sure you backup any files before you start as you may overwrite existing files.
To backup from your web host, simply download your entire website onto your PC before you start.
To backup from your hard disk, simply copy your entire website folder and paste it somewhere safe.
I hope this has been of help to all and wish you all good luck!
