Step 5a - Configure Your FTP Information

Step 5a - Configure your FTP information and (5b) upload your cloaked page to your website. 

If this is your first time using the Affiliate Link Cloaker (or if you are going to use a new website) you will need to set up the details of your website so you can upload your page. By the way, there is no limit to the number of sites you can use with this software!

The necessary information for this part of the process is found in the information you received from your web hosting company. Go find the email they sent you when you first signed up - that has the information you need.

Click the "New" button on the right side of the program.

A configuration box will appear that looks like this. Fill in the Site Name - this is the name you'll see displayed in the left of the box on step 5 (see above left in the big white box).

Fill in your FTP host - this is usually your domain name without the www

Port - leave the port alone! Unless you know it is a different port don't change it.

Username and Password - fill this in. Probably best to copy and paste into the blanks the information from the signup confirmation you got from your web host. This will help to avoid spelling or typing errors.

Directory - this one can be a little tricky. The Directory you want is the one where you upload your html pages to display on the web. This Directory is usually something like "http" or "docs" or "www" or "httpdocs" or something similar.

Contact your web hosting company if you have any questions about the directory. Also, you can log in through your regular FTP program to see what directory you load pages into on your website.

Click "OK" when you are done configuring your ftp information. Your website should now appear in the list of FTP sites.

NOTE: The first time you use the Affiliate Link Cloaker and enter in your FTP information you may have to close the program and restart it before the "Upload" button can be clicked.
