FTP to: www.yourdomainname.com
Use an FTP client program to upload your webpages. "Cute FTP"
for the PC or "Fetch" for the Mac are two good FTP programs.
Visit Shareware.com or TuCows.com to see the various FTP programs
available.
If you do not remember your username and password then please contact
TeleSouth Customer Care. We will be happy to look it up for you.
When you log-in you will be in your root directory( / ). Simply
upload your webpages into the directory. You can then add sub-directories
using your FTP program. (Just make sure that links within your webpages
are referenced to correctly show the proper directory--otherwise
visitors to your site will get a "404 - File Not Found"
message.)
When uploading, be sure that HTML is in "TEXT" (ASCII)
mode and that graphics (.JPGs or .GIFs) are in "BINARY"
or "RAW DATA" mode. Your FTP program should give you the
option of what type of file format to use.
The web page that will be brought up as the default must be named
"index.html". This is usually the home page. Please note,
if your HTML document has been saved as "index.htm" be
sure and rename it to "index.html" when you upload it.
Your other webpages CAN have the ".htm" extensions if
you reference the links with them.
Any file that you upload into your web directory will be located
at:
"http://www.yourdomain.com/"
If you have included subdirectories, these can be found at:
"http://www.yourdomain.com/subdir/"
Any file that you upload to this subdirectory would be found at:
"http://www.yourdomain.com/subdir/filename.html"
In EACH directory there can be a file named "index.html"
that will run as the default. |
