Upload files to web server

Once you register on one of the free servers, then the last step so that the web page you can see all the people are uploading or sending files to a web server.

There are two kinds of methods used to send or upload files to a web server, which is directly through a browser or via FTP (File Transfer Protocol). For that you need to know which way is supported by your web server. Just an example, www.homepage.com use the browser to upload, use FTP while www.virtualave.net to www.tripod.com can use the browser or FTP. Which will be discussed here is to send files using FTP.

Software that can be used is WAS FTP or CuteFTP. (Not to be confused with the word FTP with WAS FTP or CuteFTP. FTP is a protocol used to connect to the web server, while the WAS FTP or CuteFTP software is used to connect to the web server.

  4. Wait a while until CuteFTP to successfully connect with the web server.
  5. If a successful connection will display a dialog box containing the proofs. Click on OK only.
