Cheap Linux and Windows hosting in Australia. Cheap domain names.

Why do registrars and hosting companies use resellers? Because it's cheaper for them to collect money through resellers. Saves the companies billing for thousands of websites. That's how we as a reseller can do cheap hosting.

Why do webmasters buy hosting and domain names from resellers? Because they can get personal service.

Resellers are always closer to the clients. Registrars and hosting companies may have a hundred thousand accounts and so cannot provide that same personal service.

If clients change their email address, the yearly or two-yearly invoice from the registrar may not reach the client who may then lose the domain name through not renewing it on time.

We are closer to the client and can phone or SMS them to ensure the domain or hosting does not expire without the owner knowing.

We as resellers can shop around hosting companies and registrars for best values.

Uploading your website with FTP

Cheap hosting | Linux hosting | Windows hosting | Windows v. Linux hosting | Cheap domains

We recommend webmasters use a stand-alone FTP program. One client used the FTP facility of Front Page and wiped out his old website but loaded his new website to the wrong folder. Naturally, the website was no longer visible on the web.

Using an FTP program lets you see where your files are both on your system and on the remote system, plus their size, date and time loaded, etc. You can set "View" in the FTP program to use your favourite HTML editor.

Google lists a lot of free or shareware FTP programs including CuteFTP, WS_FTP, SmartFTP, etc.

ftp

To setup your FTP program to load your file,
go to Sites > Add to sites.

ftp Give a name to this site.
ftp Enter the host address provided by us:
ftp Enter the UserID and Password provided by us:
ftp
ftp
ftp In program options, you can select an HTML Editor in place of the default Notepad.
This can be Dreamweaver, or any editor.
ftp Then go to Sites > Organise Sites:
ftp And enter the location of your files on your hard disk - and the folder we advised for the website on the remote system.
After you click Connect you will see your hard disk on the left side and the remote system on the right side, with arrow pointing each way in the middle.
Highlight files on one side, then click an arrow to copy them to the other side. (Don't send the folder itself, just the files) ftp
Try the buttons for each side. Selecting a file and clicking View will open that file in the editor of your choice.

Using an FTP program gives you full control on files making up your website and ensures that you don't load e.g. images too large in Kb for browsers to display.
