Macromedia / Adobe Dreamweaver uses FTP to upload web pages. You will just need to configure a new "site" in Dreamweaver, with the following information: In these examples, please replace "yourdomain.com" with your actual domain name that you are trying to connect to. These instructions assume you know your master web hosting username and password. If you do not know then, see your
Web Hosting Instructions.
