Bldg a Website?

www.slamminskinnybod.com

I’m using the sitebuilder software that came with the webhosting package. I’m pretty limited on what I can do, esp since I only know the basics about html and don’t know how to manipulate the built-in tables.

My site looks pretty amateurish but I’m so dang passionate about the content that it’s frustrating to not know how to do what I want to do.

I’ve figured out the basics and how to add a forum but I want more creative control.

Should I use my own software instead – like DreamWeaver (don’t own it – was hoping to pick up a copy from HalfPrice Books or half.com if necessary)? Which one is the most user-friendly? FrontPage?

Also, what do you think of the domain name? I wanted it to be hip and attention-getting.

It’s an absolute baby right now as far as developing it and I know how amateurish it looks so please don’t be mean.

A great place to start would be getting a professional template. They are out there because not everyone IS or HAS TIME to create a great looking template from scratch. Most folks just want to plug-n-play their content.

I would suggest visiting: http://www.oswd.org/ and find a template you love. Then you could simply plug-n-play your template.

If that is still too much headache, try using free Content Managment Software (CMS) like Joomla! or Wordpress (really blogging software – but can be used as a CMS)

http://www.joomla.org

http://www.wordpress.org

If you still get stuck – message me and I will try to help!

Good luck and hang in there! It’s great to passionate!!

Web Page hosting help please?

http://uk.geocities.com/drfcskittlesteam@btinternet.com/index.htm is done by "FTP" upload via ms-frontpage. This is free via btinternet broadband.
All I need to know is?
Does this work the same on the pay webhosting with a ".com" or ".co.uk". Do you simply just up-load the same as I do now??

This is one I have been looking at! not the chepest I know.

The methods for uploading your work to a host server depend on that particular service.

Some of them allow FTP (which is fairly common). Some have server extensions that allow you to modify and edit directly. There are various other ways.

I have a bad habit of not clicking random links posted here, so I can’t verify which one the service you’re looking at uses. However, their sales/customer service area should be able to tell you. That’s why they are there.

How to choose a free web hosting site for my domain?

After I paid for a domain from godaddy, I found out its web hosting prices were not good for me. I want one that is free. It’s gonna be just a small personal website to publicize myself and no intention of business. There are so many of them out there. What should I look into to decide which one to choose? There are a few subquestions:

Is it a common practise for free hosting site to charge for the domain transfer fee?

Does free webhosting site provide support for the basic designing of my homepage? (I knew nothing about Microsoft Frontpage or Dreamweaver…)

If I dislike it, is it possible for me to switch to other hosting sites without losing any of the content on my page?

For the type of web host you are looking for I suggest this one

http://www.000webhost.com/224273.html

I have been using 000webhost for sometime now to host my two sites and I never have had a problem with them. It is very much a legitimate company and it has a lot of happy customers.

Now to answer your sub-questions…

Is it common for a free hosting site to charge for transfer of your domain? No, because most free web hosts don’t support this feature, they have FREE domain hosting but no domain transfer; this is the case with 000webhost, they will host your domain for free but you have to change your nameservers on godaddy for the domain to be pointed to 000webhost.

Does free web hosting provide support for the basic web designing of your page? With most yes, they have site-builders to help you with your page and you don’t have to know a line of code whatsoever. with 000webhost they have an on-site, site bulder which is fairly easy to use but a little more complicated than say webs.com or something like that.

If you dislike it, is it possible to change to a new web host? Well of course its possible. with 000webhost you can download backups of your website from your control panel (which is helpful because you won’t be saving a copy in dreamwever or coffeecup)

I promise you that 000webhost is the way to go if you are looking for a reliable and steady free web hosting service.

I have never seen a web hosting company cheaper than 1 dollar per month. I think you should be careful though, notice how one thing that isn’t on that list is any kind of customer service?

If you have a problem, you will be out of luck. Go with godaddy or something that costs a few dollars more. I like godaddy because there is always someone you can call if you need help with anything, and they speak english.

My webhosting service is through IPOWER , And I hate it ! It always has problems and my website never loads correctly on the ipower servers. I thought that maybe It was my website or computer that was the problem. So I got a bran new computer and got a New version of Frontpage and REMADE MY WEBSITE from scratch. And I noticed today that Im having the same problems with my website so it has to be the web hosting service. So now I want to switch to a new web hosting company. Can I do this and how ? I need to be able to take my domain name with me. What do I need to do to this ? The new comany I want to switch too is Omnis Web host. And one more thing is im mad casue I have pre-paid for 2 years hosting on Ipower and now have to switch for poor service. Do I lose my money then ? or can I ask for a refund ?

website publishing?

I have purchased a .com name & webhosting plan. When I type the ftp:// and my web address into my browser the login box does not show up. I get this message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
I have tried using the search bar in my doucments to do the same as above with the same results.
Domainmonger talks way over my head so I dont have a clue what they are saying.
I am using IE (the newest version) and winXP home edition
Also I am using microsoft frontpage to build my website.
I understand some computer stuff but evidently not enough to get this published.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

It could be that instead of ftp://yourdomain.com you would have to go to ftp.yourdomain.com . If that doesn’t work, try using something else for the FTP connection, like FileZilla.
