How To Back Up Your FTP Files (With Filezilla)



Backing up your FTP files, and knowing how to use Filezilla in general, are a major part of owning a website. Once you have created the major part of your website (index.php and so on), the next step is to back up every single file to both your home computer and to a flash drive. If you were to have a problem with your hosting provider and lost hosting for even a moment, your files may be completely lost! Leaving you to start over from scratch! Some hosting providers do have your files backed up for you but will charge in excess of $200 to upload them back to the server.

So get Filezilla downloaded, watch the basic tutorials and then watch my video on how to back up your files. If there were any parts that you didn't understand, please leave a comment for me and I will help you resolve the issue! (site used in this video is highschoolgraduationpartyideas.net)
