Every webmasters use kinds of FTP software differently.

I use Dreamweaver's Remote Connection that is built-in FTP account automatically transferring files to a remote site (web hosting server) as well as AceFTP3 software and MS-IE browser using ftp://ftp.yourdomainname.com.

Oh! I am so sorry for calling you "lazy" since you are newbie web designer. All right!

Which FTP software you use? Cute FTP or Filezilla that confused me knowing which FTP you get error "530 Authentication failed"?

For Filezilla software, i found the google of "530 Authentication failed" on Filezilla at below:

Your username should be the name you use to login to cPanel WITHOUT the .yourdomainname.com at the end.
So yours would be

host: yourusername.yourdomainname.com
Port: 21 (i hope that was just a mistake. should be port 21, not 11)
Server type: ftp
logon type: normal
user: yourusername

I do not know what kind of version you use Dreamweaver.  Here is self-explanation of using Dreamweaver, please scroll down finding how to set up remote site on "Define a New Site" at below link:

http://www.irc.gmu.edu/resources/findingaid/qs_dreamweaver/index2.html

It is built-in FTP account via Dreamweaver.

If you are working on PHP coding on design view using Dreamweaver, then check out existing Nairaland thread below:

Let me know if you need to learn how to use MySQL connection via Dreamweaver building a database-driven website, i will give you a tutorial soon.

Understandable to protect your username/password on public forum. That is fine with me here.

Are you use FTP account (sometimes called host username/password or server username/password to varied web hosting server) to set up remote site? You also can use IP address as FTP account too.

Did you have trouble accessing to C-panel? If you have no problem accessing to C-panel, then i suggest you to look at C-panel account information you will find useful FTP account there. If not, then next step below question.

What is the name of your web hosting server?

I will google finding its properly FTP account configuration for FTP software for you.

Don't worry! I am proficient in web hosting server control panel(CP): C-panel, Plesk, Hspere, now new add your CP: Total Control (i never see it before) to my CV/resume.

Your webhost4file hosting control panel is called "Total Control"

[list]
[*]To get FTP info, use "Account" menu, you will find there.

[*]To upload file via hosting control panel, use "Site Admin" menu then on the right-hand column select "File Manager". Then scroll down on the section of "Upload Single File:". (i hate single uploaded file each time, that's why I use Dreamweaver's remote connection or FTP software allowing multiple file uploading more faster than using web-based hosting CP.)

[*]To install osCommerce (Ecommerce) to your hosting service, use "Site Admin"  menu then on the right-hand column select "Ecommerce Wiz" and following the instructions there.

[*]To manage a database, use "Database" menu then on the right-hand column select the sub menu "MySQL Admin", and you will find the name of database, server IP address, login ID and database type there in order to set up for your Dreamweaver database connection.

Alternative method of fastest and easiest way managing your DB is use your hosting web-based DB manager. Go back to the "Database" menu then on the right-hand column select the sub menu "MySQL Manager (PHPMyAdmin), and enter your MySQL username/password (it is same as FTP username/password).
[/list]

For rest of other control panel button navigations do not touch them unless if you are modify something---bit complex set up: Domains, DNS, Mail, Security, Report. Those are for adding user(s) or another Domain name(s) or SSI certification key.

If you still are stuck using your hosting server: webhost4life control panel, here is your interactive Demo Tutorial link at below:

Good luck!
