These steps will give you information on how to create your web site and
transfer it to the personal web page server.
Steps:
-
Activate your personal web space.
- Create your web site :
To create your web site you will need an HTML editor. This is a tool that
acts like a word processor and programs the HTML in the background. It is
as simple as writing a word document or email. Some HTML editors are
available for free on
http://www.tucows.com or
http://www.downloads.com (Note: these sites are not affiliated with
Aliant).
The easiest HTML Editors have WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get)
capabilities, the most popular ones are Microsoft
Frontpage
and Macromedia
Dreamweaver.

Tips:
- The file name of the first page you want your visitors to see should
be called index.htm or index.html.
- HTML web page names are case sensitive. The rule of thumb is always
use small (lower case) letters when saving your web pages that are
destined for the Internet.
- CGI and FrontPage extensions are not supported on your Bell Aliant
personal web space.
- Aliant does NOT offer telephone support on how to design your
website or load your pages on to the server.
-
Transfer your web site to the server.
