 How To Upload To Your Site

1. Open your FTP client. (We will be using WS_FTP LE in this Example)

WS_FTP LE is available free of charge only to non-commercial home users, students and faculty of educational institutions, and to U.S. federal, state, and local government employees. Commercial users and others who do not qualify for free use of WS_FTP LE may download WS_FTP LE for a free evaluation prior to purchasing WS_FTP Pro." see: http://www.ipswitch.com/purchase/index.html

Cute FTP is available from http://www.shareware.com and is another excellent client.

2. Click Connect. The Session Profile window appears.

3. In the Host Name field, type the host address (e.g. users.wtsonline.net)

4. In the User ID field, type your username (Thats your Login Name)

5. In the Password field, type your password. (Same Password used for your Login)

6. In Remote Host field, leave blank.

7. Click OK.

The Session Profile window disappears, and the right window (Remote System) displays the directory listing of your home page directory. Place all of the files you would like the world to see here.

Select ASCII when uploading text files, such as HTML documents. Otherwise, select Binary.

If your not sure what you want to upload will work like you think, it's always best to rename your old file first, then upload the new file to the system. For example you might want to rename your Index.htm file to Index.001. This way, if something is wrong with your replacement file, you can always go back to the original. (select the file and click the Rename button).

a. Use lower-case letters whenever possible. (Remember that our ftp and web servers are case sensitive)

b. Don't use spaces or any of these characters in file names. &*%$#@!|\+/ . Only and underscore _ should be used as a spacer. All other characters will cause you problems

c. Use the extensions .html or .htm for HTML documents .gif for GIF images .jpeg or .jpg for JPEG images .txt for plain text documents.

8. Index.htm is the first file seen when someone goes to your homepage. You may should the index file and replace it with your own. Your home page location then becomes,

http://users.wtsonline.net/username

where username is replaced by your login name.
