This entry is part 32 of 32 in the series Flash CS4 Tutorials

In this tutorial you will learn how to upload a website via FTP.

To begin with we will assume you have already created the website files. In case you have not already done so you can learn how from the Dreamweaver, Flash or Flash Catalyst tutorials available on this site.

You will also need a hosting server and domain name. We use Hostgator to host this site.

Most hosting servers provide a File Manager within the control panel (cpanel) which you can use to upload your website files.

You can also use a free FTP software like Filezilla to upload your files. If you use an FTP program, you will need to enter your hosting server details to connect to the hosting server:

  • Host
  • User
  • Password

Once you connect you will need to transfer a copy of your website files to your remote hosting server.

Filezilla usage guide

Make sure your home page html file is named index.html.

Now type your domain name into your browser and you should be able to see your website live!
