Did you pay for hosting or do you want a free hosting service?

If you want a free host, you can try Yahoo Geocities: http://www.yahoo.com/geocities.

If you paid to a Web host, I believe they would give you and ftp password and the domain you're to transfer files to. you can then download an FTP program and use it to upload your files. You may like Filezilla(which is free by the way) download it from: http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/.

Have fun.

are you sure u are uploading in the right place?

what folder do you upload to?

how do you connect with dreamweaver?

list these thing so we can know where you need help.

and i think dreamweaver is better for uploading than frontpage.

well actually i just sis the the hosting company told me to.
putting the ftp address: abohrandy.***.com

and for the folder they told me to just add a slash behind the ftp.

my dreamwaever won't get there
i tot it was a firewall prob but its not.
frontpage reached there but could not do as sent to.

well there could be a pro with the address coz when it it is signing in, i  c sth like this ftp://abohrandy.***.com/abohrandy.***.com/ so i don't code the wazup.
