Default First web

I have just finished my first web page, it is still on my computer and I would like to publish it, but I dont know how - Could somebody explane me in details how to do that. I've used MS FPage. And I have some more questions:

- Where to find free web space?
- How to set first page?

I have not used one of those free web page providers in a long time, so i really do not know which is the best anymore. But when I first began experimenting with web pages I used angelfire.com. However, angelfire added ads to every page on your.

I know for sure there is are some "ad-less" sites out there.

http://www.freedomain.co.nr/ is one of 'em. However, these guys only provide 15 megs of space.

Concerning setting up yoru first page.....You can either use an ftp client to upload your files to your host's servers. THe More popular free hosts offer web based file managers. THese eliminate the need for ftp.

If you plan to work with scripts, like php or perl, you will need ftp client so you can change permissions.

When you upload your files, whether you use ftp or a web based file manager, you must make your main page index.htm or index.html

If you decide to use an ftp client, my personal favorite is FTP Commander. It is easy to use and has a nice user interface. You can get it at http://www.internet-soft.com/

You can go to www.angelfire.com for free web hosting, or you can search the net, there are a lot of free web hosting out there.

There are many free hosts out there such as http://www.domaindlx.com/ or http://www.mvhosted.com/. Do please remembers a lot of free hosts out there but please note not all of them have php and css scripted in. there for it will be useless for you to use.
For a free host all you do is upload your files. I personally upload one page at a time and than when the pages are created go back and fill in the links with the apropriet ones.
Also what i do i get a free hosting account and go to www.dot.tk. They provide free .tk domains. However, you must register every individual page as a new .tk domain in order for it to have a unique page.
