Uploading Files
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) allows you to transfer files between computers on the Internet.
Once you have created a website on your computer, you can use an FTP client to publish the website to Internode’s web server.
When your Business Webspace (or broadband service, if you are a Personal Webspace user) was set up, you will have received an email with your FTP connection details. Please have this information handy when configuring your FTP client:
- Your host name
- Your username or user ID
- Your FTP password
Please contact our support team if you have any questions or difficulties.
