FTP Server FTP Settings


To publish your web site on your web space you will need to upload your web pages from your own computer to your web space on the Web Wiz web servers. This is done via File Transfer Protocol (FTP).

To upload your files via FTP, you need to have a program running on your computer that allows you to upload your files to your web space. The program that Web Wiz Hosts recommended for this task is the free FileZilla FTP Client.

FTP Settings

Before you can upload your content to your hosting space on our systems you first need to create an FTP account through your Control Panel, under the 'FTP Accounts' page.

To upload your pages to the web server you will need to enter the following settings in your FTP software: -

FTP Settings

FTP Host Address ftp.webwizhost.com
Alternatively you can also use ftp.domainname.com (replace domainname.com with your own websites domain name)
Login As you have specified in your Control Panel
Password As you have specified in your Control Panel
Port Number 21
FTP Mode Passive
SSL As well as standard FTP, Secure FTP is also permitted using Explicit TLS/SSL

When you upload your website your web pages need to be uploaded to the 'wwwroot' folder located in your FTP account under a folder named after the primary domain name for the website. The 'wwwroot' folder is the public root of your website.

Please also read the documentation on, Understanding the File System, to fully understand where to upload your web site to.
