Heads-up: This Tutorial is vintage 2016 (Win 8, 8.1 & 10 Users)
The bigger my website grows, WordPress and web hosting updates can be risky. Since I rather be safe than sorry, I got to thinking: “Is there a way I can manage my website from my PC instead of a web browser?”
Lucky for us, YES!
You might have experience logging into a public library or college PC to access remote files via a handy feature called File Transfer Protocol or FTP. Maybe not? Either way, just like from a remote PC, you can access your hosted website’s files remotely right from your desk!
Let’s give it a shot!
Look over to the upper left side of the Wealthy Affiliate site to find the “Site Rubix” button. Hover your cursor over it to bring up a panel, and click “Site Manager: GO”.
