• Order your package or free trial and have us set up an account for you on our server. If you are using a different hosting company ( why would you :-} ), you will need to contact them to ensure that your account is set up.

• Go to your domain name registrar and change your host or dns server details

You will need to have ftp ( file transfer protocol ) software installed on your computer, if you don't have any you can download free ftp software from here.

When you have installed your ftp software you will need to set it up to connect to the server, as follows:-

In the address field put your domain name, without the http://www.,
then, in the appropriate fields, put the username and password you were given by your webhost when they set up your account.

You should now be ready to click the connect button. Once the ftp software connects to our server you will be in the Root directory and a number of sub directories will be visible ( this may vary if you are not using our hosting service, contact your host for this info ).

Never delete any of these directories.

Open the www sub directory and upload your files to that folder.

You must have a file, usually your main page, called index.html or index.htm in your www directory in order for your site to become visible on the www.

Now that your site is 'up' on the www all you need is a few visitors.

If you want to get visitors from the 'net you will have to promote your site. For tips and info about the best ways to do this, we recommend you start here.
