Upload
Summary
FTP - Upload your files with a FTP client.
Browser - You can upload and create your site online
with your web browser.
Email - Email your files to them and they will add your
files to your directory.
FP - FrontPage server extensions installed for you to
upload your files with FrontPage.
You can upload files to a free webspace provider's server with
a FTP-client (for example WSFTP for Windows or Fetch for Mac)
or you could upload files with your web browser. FTP = File
Transfer Protocol. I prefer to upload with a FTP-client since
you will be able to upload all your files intstantly. With most
browser uploads you need to specify the name for each file you
upload and can only upload 1-10 files at a time. This makes
browser upload much slower than when you use a FTP-client.
Some providers can only receive your files if you email the
files to them. It's very time consuming to upload files manually
via email. This means that the provider will only let you
update your homepage via email one or two times per month...
A few services offer to accept your files via Mirabilis pager
ICQ, but this solution has the same problems as email upload.
If you use Frontpage to create your website, some free web
hosts have FrontPage server extensions installed which will
make it easier for you to maintain your site.
