Note: Compress the files in a .zip archive format.
Login to your cPanel
Scroll down to the File section and select File Manager.
The File Manager Section Opens.
Select public_html directory in the directories listed.
Now Select Upload on the top left menu.
The File Upload section opens, click Select File to upload your website files. (You can also drag and drop the zip file).
Click on the folder you want to upload the files from and select the zipped file you want to upload.
Wait for the file to finish loading and click Go back to */home
Your website files are successfully uploaded but it has been Zipped.
To unzip it, right click on the zip file and select Extract. A pop-up window opens, Click Extract Files. Your website files are successfully extracted.
Open a new tab and enter your domain name or reload page if already opened.
In my case, it is shostdemo.tk
Your website is live now
