One of the most popular tools for this is <strong>FileZilla<\/strong>, a free, open-source FTP (File Transfer Protocol) client. In this guide, we\u2019ll walk you through how to use FileZilla to transfer files to your hosting server with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vicservers.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Vicservers<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>What You\u2019ll Need<\/h2>\n<p>Before you begin, make sure you have:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A hosting account with <strong>Vicservers<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Your <strong>FTP credentials<\/strong> (you can find them in your Vicservers cPanel)<\/li>\n<li><strong>FileZilla<\/strong> installed on your computer (available for Windows, macOS, and Linux)<\/li>\n<li>Your website files ready for upload<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Step 1: Download and Install FileZilla<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Visit filezilla-project.org<\/li>\n<li>Download <strong>FileZilla Client<\/strong> (not the Server version).<\/li>\n<li>Install it following the setup instructions for your operating system.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Step 2: Get Your FTP Credentials from Vicservers<\/h2>\n<p>Login to your <strong>cPanel<\/strong> on Vicservers and find the FTP section.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll need the following information:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Host\/Server<\/strong>: Usually <code>ftp.yourdomain.com<\/code> or your server IP<\/li>\n<li><strong>Username<\/strong>: Your FTP account name<\/li>\n<li><strong>Password<\/strong>: The one you set or generated<\/li>\n<li><strong>Port<\/strong>: Usually <code>21<\/code> for FTP, or <code>22<\/code> for SFTP (recommended for secure transfer)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t created an FTP account yet:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to <strong>FTP Accounts<\/strong> in cPanel.<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Add FTP Account<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Set the username, domain, password, and directory access.<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Create FTP Account<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Step 3: Connect to Your Server via FileZilla<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Open FileZilla.<\/li>\n<li>Go to the top bar and enter:\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Host<\/strong>: <code>ftp.yourdomain.com<\/code><\/li>\n<li><strong>Username<\/strong>: your FTP username<\/li>\n<li><strong>Password<\/strong>: your password<\/li>\n<li><strong>Port<\/strong>: 21 (or 22 for SFTP)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Quickconnect<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Tip:<\/strong> If you want to save your login details, use the <strong>Site Manager<\/strong> (File &gt;
