    Default Can't connect to website to upoad

    Could someone please help me. I have tried to up load the website i have built using NOF15 I use filezilla to upload, as it is the only thing I have been shown how. I am a very novice user. Here is what I get from Filezilla when I try to connect. Can someone please explain what is wrong, and how I can fix it?

    maybe you have not set /public_html as the home directory in advanced settings?

    how are you typing the host address?

    no need for www

    you can use your domainname.com or the IP address (without port number) (without www) (without http) (without ftp)

    that should work

    what did you set as protocol? FTP or SFTP?

    maybe your Host has an issue at the moment, can you check with them
