Uploading a Flipbook to Your Website

Uploading your flipbook is simply a matter of connecting to your website, creating a directory, and placing all the files from the downloaded ZIP file into that directory. This guide walks you through the entire process step by step.

Get an FTP Client

First, you will need an FTP client to upload your files. Any FTP client will work, but we recommend FileZilla if you do not have one yet. FileZilla is completely free, open-source, and one of the most reliable FTP clients available.

Connecting to Your Website

Connecting to your website is straightforward, but you will need the correct FTP credentials. If you do not have your FTP login details, contact your webmaster or hosting provider.

Enter Your Hosting Information

When you open FileZilla, look for the "Quickconnect" bar at the top of the screen. This is where you enter your FTP credentials.

You will need three pieces of information:

Host (your server address)
Username
Password

Establish the Connection

Once you have entered your FTP credentials, click "Quickconnect." FileZilla will connect to your website. If the credentials are correct, you will see a screen similar to the one below:

The left side of the screen displays your local computer, while the right side shows the files on your web server. Navigate to the root directory of your website — in most cases, this is a folder called public_html. Double-click it to browse your website files.

Upload Your Flipbook Files

Now that you are connected, it is time to transfer the files. On the left side, navigate to the directory containing your extracted flipbook files. On the right side, navigate to the location on your server where you want the flipbook to live.

Right-click the flipbook folder on the left and select "Upload." FileZilla will begin transferring all files to your server. This may take a moment depending on the size of your flipbook.
