FileZilla is a free Data Transfer (FTP) application which is used to move data/files from local computer to server/hosting. FileZilla is one of the most popular FTP clients used by both professional and novice website developers.
The main purpose of using Filezilla is to make it easier for you to upload and download files from the server or webhosting you are using. You can also edit files and save changes without the need to download and upload manually.
For those of you who are just learning to create a blog or website, the main function of FileZilla is to help bloggers or web developers if they want to upload files, both small and large, to the website via FTP.
This FileZilla application supports Mac, Windows and Linux which means you can use this software on 3 types of computer operating systems.
The program offers support for firewall and proxy connections as well as SSL and GSS Security. Additional features include automatic ascii/binary transfers and more. A program suitable for both beginners and expert users such as webmaster admins.
For a blogger or a web admin who has their own hosting, this one tool is widely used for easy file uploads, editing html code and so on.
How to use Filezilla is very easy:
- Enter your Host, Username, and Password.
- Host : Filled with your domain (without www) or server IP
- Username: Enter your cPanel username.
- Password: Enter the password.
- Port : Empty Port, to use default port only
- Then click Quick Connect to enter your FTP access
- Wait until the status is successful
The advantage of using Filezilla is that we can monitor the progress of file transfers and the speed of the transfer, so that if there is a file that is not transferred perfectly due to a lost internet connection, we can redo the file (no need for all files or one folder to be moved again).
