What can I use to upload my website?

Any FTP or SFTP program can be used to upload and manage your website files. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is designed for getting files from one place to another over the Internet. You can find FTP functionality in a dedicated FTP program or built in to most web design/development applications.

Wikipedia provides an extensive list of FTP clients. Two fine free programs are FileZilla and WinSCP. The latter has the benefit of secure FTP which will encrypt your files in transit.

Many web design and development applications have FTP functionality built in. Typically you will provide your FTP server, username and password and files will be uploaded either on request or automatically when changes are made.

You can comformably manage your website using Abode Dreamweaver, Microsoft Frontpage and Expression Web or one of many other HTML editors.

The development of this website is carried out in NetBeans, a software development environment with integrated FTP functionality.
