Uploading Your Files
In order to view your web pages on the Internet, they need to be uploaded onto your web site. To do this, you need to use a program known as an FTP program (File Transfer Protocol). We recommend using WS FTP LE (free). Some programs such as Netscape Composer have FTP built in.
MS FrontPage users should follow directions found here.
For most any FTP program that you use, the basic setup you will need is as follows:
Server or Host or FTP Name:
Replace yourdomain.com with the domain name that you use. If you domain is not yet transferred to Netfronts or is not yet registered, you should use the Instant Access Domain that you received when you signed up. It will look something like: d24694.u52.hosting-advantage.com. You can find this in Web Options in your Control Panel.

Initial Remote Directory or Remote Directory or Web Page Directory:
Home Page File Name:
FTP Alternative: to upload and manager your files, you can also use the WEB SHELL, which is located in your Control Panel
Q: I'm uploading pages but they aren't showing up?
If the login page shows up as your home page , index.html, has not been replaced by another index page, then anyone going to domainname.com will still see the login page instead of your home page.
Just delete the index.html file and anything after it in this list will then come up automatically.
If you still aren't sure what to do, just delete all INDEX pages in your /yourdomain.com folder. Then upload your index.html or index.htm page and that will show up as the HOME PAGE.
