WebDrive allows you to mount your Hosted~FTP~ server as a mapped local drive. It allows Windows and Mac users to easily manage files and folders on the server using a familiar drag and drop approach.
To connect, follow the steps below. If you haven’t yet, download WebDrive here. Or view our review on WebDrive.
Steps #
| After installing WebDrive, open the program and click “New” at the top left. |  |
| A pop-up window will list your choice of connection. Select your protocol – In this tutorial, we will be using a secure connection, SFTP. |  |
| Input your hostname, and login credentials then click “Next”. You can customize your hostname (find out here), or use the default hostname: ftp.hostedftp.com. |  |
| Input the name you want the drive to show, and the letter you want WebDrive to show (in this example: W:// Drive), and click “Connect Now“. |  |
| Congratulations, your FTP is now mounted as a disk drive. Viewing your drives, you should now see your FTP site. |  |
Now you’re ready to use WebDrive.
