I have started my own site and I have my domain. Now I wonder how do I get it out on the internet?

Zygote76 · 26-04-2008, 03:39

Google FTP

beginners web design

you have much to learn and people here ain't going to hand feed you

Ask your web hosting provider for help?

You do have web-hosting right?

arsholdings · 27-04-2008, 22:53

use cuteFTP or smartFTP, google these

you can just use dreamweaver's ftp tools if you're using that to build your site. bit sluggish and temperamental but it's what i use.

pgo · 28-04-2008, 09:57

Dreamweaver FTP blows. CuteFTP and SmartFTP are both inferior to the mighty FileZilla

abbasinho · 28-04-2008, 11:55

it may blow but you stick to what you know don't you.

a recommendations for a mac ftp program???

RaelRode · 28-04-2008, 12:11

FileZilla works on all platforms...I use FireFTP...it's handy.

Uh... what's to "know"?

That's like saying "I don't use Notepad++ because I'm used to Notepad."

FileZilla is available for Mac, too. Transmit costs money, so I haven't bothered looking at it - don't use FTP at work, only use a Mac at work, so...no sense in paying for it.

Zygote76 · 28-04-2008, 14:37

Somebody had recommended fetch ftp, but I haven't looked into it. I personally use WS_FTP and haven't really had any need to try anything else as it works just fine.

I'll have to check out FileZilla

abbasinho · 28-04-2008, 14:41

i use dreamweaver because i build my sites in dreamweaver - haven't really done it any other way - hence sticking to what i know.

Zygote76 · 28-04-2008, 15:23

Hmmm, tried Fireftp and FileZilla. Can't say I'm a fan of using my internet browser for ftp transfers, so Firebug is out. FileZilla is pretty much like WS_ftp not sure which I like better yet though.

Zygote76 · 29-04-2008, 15:17

Well I am really liking FileZilla but the only thing is it doesn't stay logged in to a site for very long. I have edited the preferences to keep it logged in longer when idle but that doesn't seem to work very well =(

Meh. Sounds like a server problem to me. Of course, I don't log into my sites for more than a minute or two anyway.

Zygote76 · 29-04-2008, 18:28

Yeah I usually wait till I get all the updates finished but today has been screwy. There are sending new pdf's to be uploaded about every 5 minutes =) Its no biggie though

My shared hosting account logs me out if I am idle for only a minute, I think it is to reduce load on the server.
