Hi guys,

This information is for the beginners.

The easiest way to upload your website is by using an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) program. Popular FTP programs include http://www.Cute FTP.com, WS FTP ,http://www. SmartFTP.com. Internet Explorer also has a built-in FTP program that can be used. Some programs used to develop websites (such as Microsoft Frontpage®) are able to upload your website files as well.

Don't forget about us Linux users

Linux Redhat: gftp

From the command line type:
"gftp &" to leave the shell open during the FTP session

Also, the good old ftp from any Windows, Linux, OS/2 command line works good also.

Command Line:

binary - sets to binary mode
ascii - sets to ascii mode
get - gets a file
mget - gets multiple files
prompt - turns prompt on/off
hash - displays status while transfering
send - sends a file

These are the basics and very easy if you just want to upload a file real quick.

Tip: Be in the directory where you want to send/receive files on your local machine before connecting with the command line FTP program
