FTP or file Transfer Protocol is the method used to transfer your HTML and other files for your website from a client PC to your webserver, files should be placed in the \HTDOCS folder

Do not use your web server for serving files of inappropriate, offensive or illegal content . Served content remains your responsibility.

There are three parameters to configure (they may be referred to by different terms depending on which program you use):

1. FTP Host Name or Host Address ie: ftp.ngresources.co.uk or use IP address: ftp://213.171.193.5
2. Note: if DNS has not propagated you will only be able to use the IP address of ftp://213.171.193.5
3. FTP User name, ie: user name as for this example
4. FTP Password, username & password are provided in your confirmation email

Please do not locate files in any other area as it may cause a problem with the web server

Right click My Computer, select Explore

In the Address bar type the URL you wish to FTP to ie ftp://213.171.193.5 or ftp://substitutewithyourdomainname.co.uk

Directory structure of your domain - (please substitute ngresources.net for your domain name) it is important this directory structure is not changed or deleted!
