Uploading files via FTP - Using FileZilla

About Filezilla

FileZilla is a fully featured, secure open Source FTP program (Which means it's FREE).
FileZilla is available at The FileZilla Project Homepage.
The following instructions show you how to configure filezilla to work with the Web In A Box servers, which will allow you to upload your website!

Using FileZilla

  • Start FileZilla, fill in "ftp.webinabox.net.au" for the Address, your username and password (found here.) in the username and password fields, then hit "quickconnect".
  • The Left side represents files on your local computer. The Right side represents files location on the Web In A Box servers. Navigate on the left to where you have your files you wish to upload.On the right side, double click on public_html to enter the publicly available area of your webspace.
  • If this is the first time you have used your hosting, you may wish to delete the existing 'index.html' file (located on our server) to reduce confusion. This can be done by right clicking the file and selecting "Delete".
  • Answer "Yes" to actually delete the file.
  • You will now see the right side is now empty.
  • Select all the files you want to upload on the left side. Right click on one of the files and select "Upload". This will queue and then start the upload of your files to the server.
  • After the upload is complete, you should see a matching list of files in both the left and right panes.
  • To test and see if your website is available, goto your website!
