Do this via the upload option on this page as shown below. Create a file called WordPress in this folder and upload all your files in this folder. Sometimes it is hard or impossible to upload the files because of the internet speed; so, you can use Flash Fxp software to upload your files.
Of course, in this step, you can upload the WordPress zip file in the WordPress folder that you created in public_html. In this case, after uploading the WordPress zip file, you must unzip them in the same host by selecting the Extract option as shown below Then delete the zip file using the Delete option.
