Hey guys,

I am branching into something out of my comfort zone here but i think it will have great results. Basically i want to upload a sales page and an e-book to my hosting account but i have no idea how to do this. I am guessing i have to use a FTP Client. Could some one who is experienced with this please explain in good detail how to go about this. Cheers

    • First off, i would like to know...which hosting company do you have?
    • I had numerous problems uploading files, headers, etc. until someone showed me how to use FileZilla ftp. The link already provided should help you out. Once you understand the process, it is very easy!

  • Hi:

    Shireen here :-)

    There are lots of free video tutorials on youtube.

    Enjoy :-)
  • my advice honestly is to pick up a real hosting package - someone like hostgator is cheap and offer reasonably good service. you'll get free auto install scripts with most packages for common cms systems etc and a web based file manager in cpanel etc.

  • Hello Vickybabe,

    Congrats on having the courage to dive in and say "Full Speed Ahead!"

    First, get a domain name, I just used coupon code SOCCER99 at godaddy last week and got a .com for 99 cents. Not sure if it still works, but there are more codes out there and maybe here on this forum, although I have not looked.

    Second, get your own hosting account. Host Gator small pkg. is only 4 bucks a month and they have great customer support! Then you are ready. And of course an auto responder acct. is preferable.

    You will need 2 pages, a sales page and a download page.

    Youtube is a great resource for finding step by step videos to do almost anything you need to set up and run a website. And of course, you can always inquire here at the Warrior Forum. There are MANY knowledgeable and helpful people that will steer you in the right direction.

    The most important step, you have already taken, you decided and TOOK ACTION.....

    Good Luck on your site!

  • Some free hosting accounts will not allow you to upload files at all - just text pages and perhaps some small images, but large files such as an ebook may be rejected.

    Check the terms of the hosting package before you attempt to upload.

    It took me a while to figure out that with FTP software... you need to double-click to navigate through folders.....back in my newbie days

    Well I taught Myself most of the things I know...
