Website Development For Search Engine Optimization (SEO) - FTP Set Up Guide

https://www.indiaseos.com/seo-blog/seo-blog.htm
Designing sites with SEO in mind doesn't have to be rocket science. Everything that you've to accomplish this can be learned online and with the help of a few books. I am going to write a series of articles showing you how to set up your WordPress blog site, also optimize it for SEO. This article is on FTP set-up, also installing an SEO optimized theme.

Assuming you previously have your domain and hosting set up, we're going to jump straight into File Transfer Protocol (FTP). If you've not set up your hosting you have to do that first.

Once you've WordPress set up you're going to need your FTP software. I use Filezilla, and it can be found with a quick search on Google, yahoo etc. Just download it and go through the set-up steps as with any other program. Once installed, your first set-up for transfers will be required.

After the first time it will remember your passwords and you can connect to your site easily.

Go to your control panel in your web hosting account and search for create FTP account. If this is your first time you're doing this leave directory blank, and just enter your domain, user name and password. I set my quota to unlimited then click enter and you've set up your FTP account.

Once you click enter, it will give you the information you require to access your account. Copy and then paste this into a document and save it on your desktop.

Open Filezilla, and on the top left, under File if you hove over the button it will say open site manager, just click on that. It will bring up the site manager window, with your options for setting up your new FTP account information. Open your document from previous, and fill in the information.

Host is the FTP server and set logon type to normal, and type your username and password. Name the account something that you can remember for your site. If my site was indiaseos.com I would name it indiaseos. Once you've filled in all the information with what you saved on your document then click connect.

Once you've clicked connect you'll see 4 large quadrants on the interface. Computer Folders, computer files, server folders and server files. These are significant because you can work everything from this location. You also have the alternative of drag and drop from your desktop.

To install your theme, refer to the big quadrant on the upper right called remote site. This is your server folders. Just click on it to open the folder and then scroll down to public html. Click on WP content and then click on themes. The quadrant below the server folders is your server files. It will previously have the default WordPress themes installed, classic and default.

What you desire to do is to find your theme that you've downloaded during the process on the left, or open it on your desktop, and then drag and drop it into the server files quadrant. Once it is done setting up you're prepared to go into WordPress and activate your theme.

This is your first step towards site development for SEO. You're now prepared to customize your SEO options.
