Putting your Web page on the server

When you've set up an account on a server and you have a Web page ready to go, the next step is getting it on the Web. Make sure you've given your page a title and a name with an .htm or .html extension so that a browser can recognize it as a Web page.The usual way to get files on a server is with a file transfer protocol or ftp program. Before Web page editors came along, ftp programs were the only way you could put files on a server from a remote location. The most popular ftp program on Windows is WS_FTP; on Macintosh it is Fetch. Both are easy to use after you practice, but it helps to have someone walk you through them the first time.
