Once your hosting is active, the next step is getting your website files onto the server. Here are the two most common ways to do it.
Method 1: The Plesk File Manager
Log in to Plesk and click Files. From there you can drag and drop files straight from your computer, create folders, and even edit code directly in the browser. This is the fastest option if you don't want to install extra software.
Method 2: FTP Upload
For larger sites or a more traditional workflow, use an FTP client such as FileZilla. Enter the FTP hostname, username, and password from your welcome email, connect, and drag your files across from your local folder to the server's httpdocs folder.
Where Files Should Go
Your website's public files belong in the httpdocs (or public_html) folder. Anything outside that folder won't be visible to website visitors.
File Permissions Matter
If your site shows a permissions error after uploading, most files should be set to 644 and folders to 755. Plesk's file manager lets you adjust these with a right-click.
