FTP to www.usatek.net and log in with your connection username and password, not your email account name. Then change to the public_html directory and put your files in there.

Be aware that this is an Apache Unix web server and there are no frontpage extensions installed for use (we have chosen not to support them for the general user accounts due to security concerns with Microsoft software - so don't use them). Not using the FrontPage extensions actually makes your site more portable and less dependent on the type of server you need to serve your pages on.

Easy. Go to http://usatek.net/ and click on the [My Account] button.
- Log in with your full username (i.e. 'username@usatek.net') and the password.

Click on the [Setup Web Page] link under Services on the left.
- Put your password in the password box and click the [connect] button.
- Click on either the public_html directory, or if you have a domain name registered and set up here, its name in the left box and click the [Enter Directory] button.

Click the [Choose File] button near the bottom of the page, and find one of the files to be uploaded and select it.
- Click the [Upload this:] button to put the file up in that directory.
- Repeat this last process for any additional files.

When done, simply close the window!

FTP to www.usatek.net and log in with your connection username and password, not your email account name. Then change to the directory with the same name as your hosted domain, and put your files in there.

NOTE: Be aware that by deafult, the server is an Apache Unix web server and there are no Frontpage extensions installed for use (we have chosen not to support them for the general user accounts due to security concerns with Microsoft software - so don't use them). Not using the FrontPage extensions actually makes your site more portable and less dependent on the type of server you need to serve your pages on.

Generally speaking, most web development programs have their own built-in upload function. This is normally an FTP program of some type and there are only a few pieces of information you need to set up the process. You will need the onnection username and password (this may be different than your email account name). For the host system, use your domain name without the www in front of it. For the destination directory also use the domain name without the www in front of it. Your software should allow you to test the setup to confirm your settings.

If you do not have an FTP program, you can download a free package from our Freeware link on our home page. You can also use the upload feature available in the My Account section after you have logged in there.

You can design your site using any of the 'good' programs out there, like Adobe GoLive and Adobe Dreamweaver. You can try to use FrontPage, but we seriously don't recommend that program as its files are notorious for only displaying well in Internet Explorer, and there is a large and growing number of people using Firefox out of security concerns with the Internet Explorer web browser. There are many other browsers out there as well, such as Safari for the Macintosh platform.

There are some free programs out there, just search Dogpile.com or Google for free web development programs. We just haven't tested them to say how well they work.
