FTP software requires 3 items:
Of course the host you are connecting to is your blog URL. Use the "www" version and that will work in 99% of all cases. So if your blog domain is example.com, try connecting to http://www.example.com.
Your username and password are the same as the ones we sent to you when your hosting account was created. Look in your email for a message with the subject of "Hosting Order Status". Of course if you have already changed the password in your Plesk control panel, use your new password rather than the initial one we sent you.
If you have never used FTP to transfer files, you might want to peruse some of our video tutorials about ftp.
