    • Typically: public_html (this is your root folder for the main domain).
    • Or: public_html/images/ (create an images folder if needed).
  4. Click Upload Files (top bar) and upload your image files (e.g., .jpg, .png, .webp).
  5. Once uploaded, your image will be accessible via URL: https://yourdomain.com/images/your-image.jpg

Option 2: Upload Images via FTP (e.g., FileZilla)

  1. Open FileZilla or any FTP client.

    • Username/password: Found in Site Tools > Dev > FTP Accounts
  3. Navigate to public_html/images/
  4. Upload your images
  5. Access them at: https://yourdomain.com/images/filename.jpg

Option 3: Upload Images via WordPress Media Library (if using WordPress)

  3. Upload your images.
  4. Click the image to get its URL, such as: https://yourdomain.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/your-image.jpg

📌 Tips

  • Optimize images before uploading (use TinyPNG or WebP format) for faster loading.
  • To organize better, use subfolders like public_html/assets/images/.
  • You can make a folder like public_html/gallery/ and upload all image content there for simple portfolio-style pages.
