The Real Web Services File Manager

Posting data files with an FTP tool is an out–of–date and quite an unsafe way for transferring data files from your computer to a web server.

All the files inside your cloud hosting account are sorted into folders. Each web host does have its main folder, which uses the file hierarchy that you’ve defined. This way, it is really easy to maintain all of your hosts in one place without any risk of getting lost or perplexed.

By default, you will see each of the hosts conveniently contained in a table and if you click once over a given host, you will observe each of the sub–folders and files related to it. By clicking on two times, you will visit a webpage that’s focused entirely on that host alone. A different way to open the folder associated with a given host and to work with it solely, is to use the drop–down menu towards the top of the primary File Manager file table.
