how do i get my website on the internet?
i have made a website using WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) web builder.
i have bought the domain name i want to use as well as a hosting package. (bought through www/123-reg.co.uk)
how do i get the site onto the internet?
any help is much appreciated
I am not familiar with the web builder you have used, and I am not sure if you upload the side using that builder, if you do not use the web builder to upload the site then try these steps:
You will have to download an FTP client, Ftp clients are used to upload files to your site, to connect to your site you will have to find out your FTP login information from your hosting provider. Once connected to your site you will be able to drag and drop files from your website that you have made, onto your ‘remote host’ (in FTP you have remote which is your online files, and local, which is your files on your pc)
I hope this helps, a link for a free FTP client is below.
Good luck


if you talk on any forums or anywhere you can have a signature. than why not post it in your signature. that’s one small way you can start getting your site out there.

You need to get a FTP program. FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. FTP enables you to copy files from your PC on to your hosts server. Some hosting packages include the use of a FTP program.
I use CuteFTP but there are many more, just google FTP

You have to FTP your files into a specific directory under your domain name. You may have to do this yourself with an FTP client on your machine or the hosting package provider may have a utility that does the transfer without using FTP on your machine.

I’m not familiar with that website builder but I can recommend another one which is very easy to publish to Internet with just one click: http://www.gobuildwebsite.com
Your website could be up and running in one day! They have the easiest website design builder I have ever seen that helps me maintain my site easily whenever I need to change or update information on the website (with amazing results). Best of all, they offer a complete package that includes website, hosting, domain name, email, etc. for only $9.75 per month.
If you wish to sell products in the future, you can upgrade the package later to their "Premium Store" package to include an online shopping cart that is fully integrated with PayPal (you will need to open a basic merchant account with PayPal at no cost). And that includes CREATING & UPLOADING of custom videos on each page and for each product!
Their software is easy yet intuitive. You can easily upload Video demonstrations of each of your products for customers to see before they buy! Just click record button in the website control panel and point your webcam to a video demonstration and the video will get recorded. This will give you an edge over other competitors that only show images of their products. If an image can speak a thousand words like a cliche reads, a video should be able to speak a million words, LOL…
They have already done all the work so you can create or manage an attractive website online without messing with HTML scripts, http://ftp., etc. All you have to have is a website browser like Internet Explorer or Safari (which you already do, because you are reading this) to make any future changes to the website.
Furthermore, they offer free toll free phone and email support! It just cannot get any better than this..
