How to create a new sftp user on Blue Host.

Hi I'm using blue host instead of dream host and I'm getting confused on what steps I need to take to create a new user. When I search the site for "how to create a new user", all I get is "How to Create and Delete MySQL Databases and Users". I'm not familiar with this process but this doesn't sound like what I'm looking for. Does anyone have any helpful hints?
Much appreciated!

Go to your cPanel and look for 'ftp accounts' or just 'ftp'. From there you should be able to create users.

If you still can't find out how to add a new account, open a chat window with BlueHost.
