Designing your website

Before you can upload your website, you will need to design it. There are many programs available for designing your website.

If you are looking for a program you can use to design your website, a free program we suggest is Kompozer from http://www.kompozer.net/.

Once you have designed your website, if you are looking for an FTP client to upload files to your web directory we suggest using FileZilla.

Uploading your website

Logging in:

For the "Server" or "Host," enter the name of your domain.
Example: somedomain.net

If there is a place to enter a subdirectory, you should enter "www" (without the quotation marks.) If there is not another field for that, then enter it in the "Server" or "Host" field.
Example: somedomain.net/www

In the username box, enter the username that you gave us @ the domain. You need the domain part in there or it will not work.
Example: joeuser@somedomain.net

The password is case sensitive.  That means that if it's lower case on our end, it needs to be lower case when you type it in.
