Hey John, I will try to get you going!
Have you created a FTP account on siteground?

John,
Marty uses siteground as well for his FTP. He'll be back by to help you with the exact settings.
But is the error message you posted the entire text of the message...
Cannot locate server?

Hey John, Sorry for the delay in response. I didn't receive a notification and just back at it to look, I apologize.
If you have a FTP account set up here is what your settings should be within AW:
FTP Host Name: yourURL FTP Port: 21 Username: this is the username that you use to enter the cpanel section of siteground. NOT the username for your FTP account - a little wacky but true! Password: same deal as above, the one you use for cpanel. Remote Directory: public_html/yourFTPaccount name/ HTTP Address: http//yourURL/yourFTPaccount name/
Be careful of CAPS it is case sensitive!
Give it a whirl and holler back,
Hope this helps,

Hi John,
If you are talking about Siteground I thinks its great. I think you get alot a bang for the buck, and they offer quite a lot of "extras". Service has been great don't remember any down time, the few times that i needed tech support they are quick and complete. Was because of my errors not theirs. So all in all great!
