Getting link from FTP upload

Car  R26
Hi chaps,

I've uploaded a file to my site via FTP, that's the easy bit. Now how to I get the link so I other people can download that file?

So in my root directory, I have a folder called 'Files', now if I upload a zip file in there, would the download link not be danfreemanphotography.com/files/xxx.zip?

If I try that I get a 404 error.

I have done it before but I can't for the life of me remember how lol!

Some servers are case sensitive. Could be that the folder name or file name needs a capital in there?

If the folder "Files" is in the same directory as your index.htm or home.htm, then the link should be correct.
 
Also check the permissions on the file (if it's hosted on a *nix flavour) to make sure that it's world readable.
