Publishing Using Front Page
Open MS FrontPage, then open your website by going to "file", and clicking "open web".
Once web is opened, click on "file", then click "publish web".
Use "http://www.speednetllc.com/username" (or "http://www.speednet.name/username") as the location to publish your web to, then click "publish". (If you are uploading to a domain use "http://www.yourdomain.com" as the location to publish your web to, then click "publish".)

Enter your SpeedNet username as the "name", enter your SpeedNet password as the "password". Once publish is complete, open your web browser and go to "www.speednetllc.com/username" (or "http://www.speednet.name/username") to view your site. (If you are using a domain then go to "www.yourdomain.com".)

How to Create a Web Page
Each SpeedNet user has an account on the www.speednetllc.com or www.speednet.name server.

Here is an example that illustrates the location of a user web page:
Username = username
Address of Web Page = http://www.speednetllc.com/username or http://www.speednet.name/username

The file default.html is your home page. This file must be present in the root directory or your site will not work properly.
So, for example, when people go to:
http://www.speednetllc.com/username

What they see is actually:
http://www.speednetllc.com/username/default.html where "default.html" is the file located at username/default.html

Uploading with FTP to your Web Page
Once you have created your web pages and are ready to transfer them to the SpeedNet Web Server, you can use an FTP client such as WS_FTP to complete the transfer.

1. Open your FTP client.
2. Enter www.speednetllc.com (or www.speednet.name) for "Host Name."
3. Choose Automatic Detect for "Host Type."
4. Enter your username for "User ID," and your password for "password. "
5. Click on Connect to connect to the SpeedNet FTP Server.

Once connected, you will end up in your root directory on the SpeedNet Web Server. The left side of the screen shows the contents of your computer; the right side is the contents of the SpeedNet Web Server.

It is important that you place all of your web page files in the root directory. Remember that your home page must be titled "default.html." To change directories, double click on the directory you want to enter.

Most FTP programs transfer files by clicking on arrows that point in either direction.

You can view your web page while you make updates by viewing:
http://www.speednetllc.com/yourusername/ (or http://www.speednet.name/yourusername)
(For Domains use http://www.yourdomain.com)
