does anyone know how i can put my html file on the web as a site

i don't care if their is advertising

first you need a host:

free (puts ads on your site) : 250free.com

Pay (no ads, plus yoursite.com instead of you.someonessite.com):

HostMySite.com (windows platform [asp enabled])
Netfirms.com (Linux platform [php enabled)

I reccomend netfirms, and, I might as well say, because someone will, that geekstogo has hosting too.

Let me know if you have any questions. Once you get a host there is a lot more to do, like actually putting the files on the web

on 250free what does it mean full size limit(5th one down) 2mb

[ssone]

thats "File Size Limit"

And that means that is the highest amount of mb each file you upload can be.


P.S. I do not reccomend 250free if you are planning on paying. They rip you off, but for free there great with the mb they give you.

[Josiah]

is 250 the total mb your site can be

yeah, if your not doing videos, believe me, thats a ton. convert all your .bmp images to .jpg and your looking at a nice size site being 10mb.

[ssone]

This one gives you more bandwidth but, one of the many that give you 50mb or less storage:

any other free hosting besides 250free, i didn't see any free hosting on host my site

[ssone]

Most of them are going to be like bravenet. You can always search for more (there are tooooons out there) if your not satisfied with what those ones give you.

[Josiah]

on these web sites do i have to use the site builder or can i use html files i have already made (if there not over the size limit)

[ssone]

you can definitely upload your own

[Josiah]

i'll ask how to that when i get to that step
