First off, please make sure that you requested FrontPage Extensions to be added to your account during signup. If you did not, please open a support ticket and we'd be happy to add them on to your account.

To Publish your site, please follow these steps:

1) Open your web site in FrontPage

2) From the top menu, select "file" then "publish web"

3) In the "Specify the location to publish your web to" field, enter your domain name in format: http://yourdomain.com

4) Enter your account username and password which was provided in your welcome email. The username should be in format username@domain.com

After clicking OK, the files on your computer will be on the left, and the remote files will be on the right. If you're using "subwebs", please check the box before continuing

5) Now make sure you are in the "mainwebsite_html" directory. Then you may drag the files which you wish to publish. If it's your first time publishing, you can click on the "options" button, then under the "publish tab", select "All Pages..."

6) After you've moved over all files, your final step is to click on "Publish". This will publish all your files and give you a confirmation when completed.

And, that's it! You should now be able to access your uploaded files online.

Important:
If you have Frontpage Extensions installed, please make sure that you do not access your site through FTP. Uploading and managing through FTP in conjunction with Frontpage will corrupt the extensions, and your site will not function properly. The only solution will then to remove all files & extensions, and then re-install.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
