Gaz's Guide On Creating A Website

After you have made all your pages in Frontpage or whatever editor you use to make .htm files you need somewhere to store them on the net so other people can see them. My favourite is www.Tripod.com It gives you 50Mb free in return for having their advert banners pop up on your site. 

Once you have registered and have the space you need to upload your .htm files. The first page anyone will see that looks at your site is the index.htm file so make sure the first page you want people to see is called index.htm.

Basic: Use the Free Form guide on tripod. This automatically makes the .htm files on the site there and then. You just add the text, choose the colours etc. The only problem with this is it's not very customizable.

Novices: Upload your .htm files to Tripod by logging into the site then going to the file manager and selecting the files you want to upload off your hard drive.

Advanced: I use BulletProof FTP (File Transfer Program) to upload files to my webspace on tripod. To log-in to tripod with bulletproof you need to type in ftp.tripod.com as the host. Then the password and username as usual. Once logged in you can see the directories and files on the site, just upload any files you want.

To update a webpage all you have to do is upload and overwright the page that needs updating.
