Greetings,
I’ve never downloaded a website via ftp in advance of and I’m owning trouble. Someone must install an kept up to date version of my friend adder site during my host and told me to download a save of the web page to my computer via ftp. But everytime I try to download the web-site I get faults… is there a less strenuous way to save a site Additionally, I’m not even sure skin color files I have to back up. thank you.
When buy an FTP application, like Filezilla (which will be free), it unwraps two
home windows. The window on the left is ones PC, the window on the right is
the webspace (website). You merely select all files on the right and copy
them up to the left.
At this point, depending on the amount of files are at this time there, and your link speed, it
will take a while for you to copy the files onto your PC.
Using FTP is like opening folders on your own harddrive and changing files around.
If you are site uses MySQL, those database files won’t be part of the download, as
your webhost keeps those in a different location. You won’t have to worry
about those a great deal of.
Regardless, you should always maintain a backup of your website on some sort of CD, update
that will backup periodically. If you are webhost crashes, they almost certainly will not be
capable to recover your internet site.
thank you, m. I managed to figure that out.
