How do I connect FileZilla to HostGator?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 6:51 pm

FileZilla can be used to connect to HostGator servers. To do this, you will need to open FileZilla and navigate to the HostGator server you want to connect to. Once you are on the HostGator server, you will need to open the FileZilla connection menu and select “Connect to Server.” This will open a dialog box that will allow you to enter the server’s hostname and port.

PRO TIP: If you are using Hostgator to connect to your FileZilla account, be aware that there have been reports of connection issues. Users have reported being unable to connect, or having their connection drop after a short period of time. It is recommended that you try another method of connecting to your FileZilla account, such as using an FTP client or the web interface.

You will then need to enter the password for the HostGator server. Once you have entered the password, FileZilla will connect to the HostGator server.
