# How do I connect via FTP?

Connecting via FTP to your web hosting is quick and easy.

Ensure you have an FTP client available. We'd recommend **[FileZilla](https://filezilla-project.org/download.php). **

- Head to** Manage Hosting**
- Select **Manage**
- On the right-hand side of the control panel, you'll see the FTP panel. You'll need to unlock FTP by either time or IP address 
- You'll see the FTP Details section that contains your **FTP Server** (Host), **Username **and **Password**
- Enter these details into FileZilla and select **Quickconnect**

You should now be connected to your web hosting via FTP. 

If you're having trouble connecting via FTP, we'd recommend reviewing the guide called **I can't connect via FTP, what can I do?** for common steps to diagnose what's wrong.
