| Also may i add, if you are trying to connect to the ftp site. The url should be changed to ftp.your_website.com There are many upload software. I used to use www.leapware.com, dreamweaver, Vstudio, command prompt all do the job for you. |

Boy !!!!Dont know where to start. But will advice you get google as your friend to get some definitions. But i will try my best to help.Hosting: Very simple. Thats putting your website on the internet for everyone to see. Using a web address e.g. The owners of this website have their site hosted on www.sqlteam.com Basically You have a name www.sqlteam.comAnd put the files from your computer to a hosting provider's computer. One of the biggest providers is www.godaddy.com which you mentioned.An IP address is an address system that computers use. Ie If you have your website registered with godaddy.com normally they will give you an IP address.ftp is 21 sftp is secure ftp. The same way you have http and httpsHope this helps. Google is your friend  |
