I have just developed a bootstrap template offline and I want to know how I can upload these files to a live site without using a CMS application. Do I just upload them via FTP to the hosting server or are there other alternatives to deploying these files?

FTP is a good way to upload files to a live server especially if they are static files. Even if they are php files ftp/sftp is the easy way.

There are other methods for e.g. git sync etc. But I'll assume you're just uploading regular html/php files, in which case ftp is good enough and widely used.

Filezilla is a good free ftp program to upload files to the server.

Once you have that make the connection to your server using your ftp/sftp credentials. I would recommend using sftp as that is secure.

Once you're connected locate your public_html folder and just transfer all your files there overwriting any index.html files. Be sure to name your homepage index.html or index.php as most servers are configured to run that as the index file.

If your index file is inside a directory, place it outside of that and into your public_html to avoid example.com/dir/index.html

Hope that helps.
