<h2>A guide and tutorial to using an FTP for Windows</h2>
<p id="intro"> Several people who I lend webspace to have had trouble using the FTP connection. Therefore, I've written a hopefully easy-to-understand tutorial and guide to using the FTP. Different hosts/servers may vary, but it is generally about the same. Just change the address to whatever your ftp would be. Using the FTP is simple.</p>

<p>1) First open your <strong>windows explorer</strong> browser (open a folder such as My Computer or My Documents) and enter your address. </p>

<p>2) A window should pop up as shown below. Click OK.</p>

<p>3) Right-click any part of the blank white area of your window and click "Login As..."</p>

<p>4) A login screen should appear. Fill out your username and password you should have been given. Don't forget the @youraddress.com part in your username if you have one. You can choose to save your password if you don't want to fill it out every time.</p>

<p>5) This is it! Upload your files here. They will be found in your domain. Folders show up as a directory, such as youraddress.com/folder/</p>

<p>Some users may also want to add the FTP location as a drive under My Computer (like a thumbdrive), which you can do using these directions:
