If this is your first website you'll want to keep it
pretty simple for now…just an "Opt-in Page" and a
"Download Page". You can add more later, but right now
we want to get you on the road.
If you're ready to upload your pages to your site, then by
now you will need to have designed your pages, tested the
links, tested your Opt-in form with your autoresponder,
selected and registered your "Domain Name", chosen and
registered with a Hosting Service Provider (such as GoDaddy
or Host Gator etc), opened your Hosting Account and finally
tested and found that your site is now live and ready to
have pages uploaded.
If you are working with GoDaddy (which I do because that's
where I started and I like it) and you built your webpage
with Dreamweaver or a simple HTML Editor you can simply use
Windows Explorer (the Windows file manager program).
You open your FTP website in MS Internet Explorer (note:
it has to be IE for this to work-you can't use Firefox
here).
Remember to use the "FTP" prefix instead of the usual
"HTTP":
Eg: "ftp://your-own-domain-name-goes-here.com"
All you have to do now is copy and paste your files from
your hard drive to the server directory and you're done.
If you have created your web pages using "Microsoft Front
Page" it's a bit more complex. You need to use some FTP
(File Transfer Protocol) software to upload your files.
It's a quite a bit more hassle to upload (we call it FTP)
your files to your site.
If you can, I recommend finding other web creation
software to work with (that's just my personal
preference…you may love it). Front Page may be easy to
create pages with but I've found it to be much more
annoying when you want to edit your site files and
directories.
This process with Front Page involves quite a bit of
detail so I'll treat it in a later article.
Keep on winning

Jim
