How do I upload files to my website?

(A) You must either use FTP (file transfer protocol) client, we recommend FileZilla (open-source), (B) you can upload via “File Manager” located in your DirectAdmin control panel or (C) you can use Host1Plus’s webftp client. All files must be uploaded to public_html directory!

Remember you you are using DirectAdmin file manager for file edit it could damage your files while saving. The best way to edit files like .php, .html, etc. is to download Notepad++ which reads and writes your files with the right format and outputs.
