If you do not have an ftp client, we recommend you download FileZilla. Search online for filezilla, and follow the instructions to download.
Open FileZilla and click on the Site Manager icon to create a new connection. Enter your host (yoursite.com), server type, logon type, username and password, and click Connect. Be sure to choose FTPS or FTPES as GeekHost only provides secure ftp.
You will see your site files on the right, and your local files on the left. Go to the folder on your local drive where your web site files are located, and double click on a file name to upload. Make sure that you have the folder open on the right where you want these files to go.
To move multiple files at once, highlight the files, right click, and select Upload.
To download a file, open the folder where you want the file to download on the left, and double click the file name on the right.
To change file permissions, right click on the name of file and select File attributes
