Step 3. Upload The Files Using An FTP Program.

Using an FTP program, upload all the files inside the “Upload” folder to your web server. I would recommend FileZilla FTP, download here.

All files go inside your website’s main directory folder.

If this is your primary domain, the files go inside “public_html” folder.

If this is an add-on domain then the files go inside “public_html/youraddondomain.com”

If this is a sub-domain then the files go inside “public_html/sub.yourwebsite.com”[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”7478″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_border”][vc_column_text]
