| Senior Member | Welcome to Namepros.First of all you will need a domain name and hosting for it. If you have a domain then there lots of sites which offers free hosting just check the Web Hosting Offer forum here. And if you don't wanna pay anything you can just use Yahoo PageBuilder, Lycos etc. |

| Account Closed | Supposing that you already have a hosting account and hosting, you will need to get a FTP software. FileZilla (http://filezilla.sourceforge.net) is a good and free FTP software. Install and run the application, enter your hostname (ask hosting provider for hostname), username and password to login. Then you will see directories similar to windows explorer. then just drag-drop the files where you want them on the remote server. |

| NamePros Member | Since you are new to hosting / domains you might be confused about FTP. FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol (this is they you transfer you file to the server that is going to host your site). But if you are not sure about FTP there are other ways to do this. WildWestDomains offers resellers like myself (networkdaddy.com) and godaddy.com to offer something called websitetonight. The allow you upload your graphics without using FTP. You just select the picture with the BROWSE button and you can put your photo shop picture and place it on your site. It is very easy and takes most of the pain out of having to learn how to FTP or learning code for webdesign. I hope this helps |

| The MINISITE King | Or If you have Windows XP Pro you could use it's own Builtin FTP (part of NetWork Places) Most HTML Editors have some FTP Capabilities As well A lot of hosting Companies (Most ,if not all) offers as part of their Control panel some form of File Manager with File UPLOAD Features. If you need any further Help PM me. The days of Needing a Stand-Alone FTP Client as the only means for File Uploading are Long gone.
