 | Uploading a websiteI have just about finished making my site in dreamweaver and am wondering what is the best way to upload it to the web? Preferrably very very cheap. I want it so that if i make changes to it on my pc it will update (if this is easily possible) and if not then simply what is the best free hosting in terms of ease of use etc. i have a .info domain and am thinking of using this with freehostia. will this work well and how have you guys done it? thanks, Grinder. |

| Re: Uploading a websiteA free FTP program. OR your site may have built in uploading if you only have a few files. |

| Re: Uploading a websiteJust google and you can find one easily. Basically within your site management(cPanel most likely) there will be an FTP section. IT will have an account already made or you have to make one. Usually it is ftp.(youraddress).co.uk and the account is your username. and the password your password. You put that information into your FTP and ten it can connect and you can transfer files easily. It will be easier to explain once you are setup with your accounts and can see it for yourself. |

| Re: Uploading a websiteFreehostia offer free hosting (duh!) - you don't need FTP to upload your files either.  |

| Re: Uploading a websiteI don't think so. All you have to do is take the files after you edit them and open the program should take like 15 seconds to do. |

| Re: Uploading a websiteJust setup filezilla (its free) and just upload and replace your files each time you make a update. Good enough for a simple site. |
