Yep NFSN is great. If you have a bunch of static files it's really just `rsync myfiles [email protected]:` and you're done. No set up, no nothing.

Yeah! The command I use is: `rsync --recursive -vv --delete --filter="protect /.well-known" /path/to/site/on/local/box [email protected]:/home/public/`

I add `--delete` to clean up any files I might've created on the box (e.g., to test .htaccess), and then `--filter="protect /.well-known" so that I keep any files related to serving as https.
