Where your files go
Your main website lives in the public_html folder. Each addon domain has its own folder, which you choose when you add the domain in cPanel under Domains.
Using File Manager
- Log in to cPanel and open File Manager.
- Open public_html (or your addon domain's folder).
- Click Upload and choose your files. To upload a whole site, upload a .zip file, then right-click it and choose Extract.
Using FTP
For larger sites, an FTP app such as FileZilla is quicker. Create an FTP account in cPanel under FTP Accounts, then connect with:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Host | ftp.yourdomain.co.za |
| Protocol | FTP with explicit TLS (FTPES) |
| Port | 21 |
| Username | The full FTP username, for example [email protected] |
