Click on the Menu "Site" --> "New Site..."

In the tab, Local Info:

Site Name: put the name you want for this profile

local Root: Select the directory you want to store the local copy of your website. (eg. D:websitesmysite)

HTTP Address: http://www.yourdomain.com/ (Replace "yourdomain" with your domain)

Leave the rest as default.

For the Remote Info Tab:

Access: FTP
FTP Host: www.yourdomain.com (replace "yourdomain" with your domain)

This is all you will need for setting up a FTP connection to your website with Dreamweaver.
