Open your Internet Explorer Web browser. If you don't want to use Internet Explorer, you can open another FTP program on your computer such as CuteFTP, BulletProof FTP and FileZilla. These types of FTP programs can be downloaded online for free.
Type 'ftp://webpages.charter.net/yourusername' in the address bar of Internet Explorer. If you chose to use a different FTP program, simply type the information into the designated field. You will be prompted to enter your Charter website user name and password.
Notice the split screen that appears after logging in. Each side of the screen contains files. The files on the left side are your computer files. Those on the right are files that are already uploaded to your Charter website.
Click on each computer file that you want to upload to your Charter website. Hold down the 'Ctrl' key to select multiple files.
Hold down your left mouse button as you drag the computer files over to the right-hand side of your screen (the side that contains your current Charter website files). Release your mouse button to 'drop' the files in place. The files will automatically be uploaded to your Charter website server.

How Does a Domain Name Work?In Feburary 2016 24,
In Feburary 2016 24,
Unless you are physically running a website, you may not know exactly what a domain name is or how it works. The simple answer is that a domain name is the address that the browser uses to find a website. Domain names are used in web addresses (www.domainname.com) and in an email address (any@domainname.com). It is a unique identifier for a website or email account.There are two parts to every domain name; a second-level domain and a top-level domain. The top-level domain is the ending notation of the domain name. Examples of the top-level portion of a domain name is .com, .net or .edu. Some top-level domains are restricted for use with only certain type of organizations or countries. For instance, .edu is reserved for schools while .gov is only for government agencies. The second-level domain is usually picked by the owner upon registration if it is available. In the web address, www.google.com, 'google' is the second-level domain.
What is it used for?
Every website, or web server, has an IP address (four sets of numbers used to locate a computer connected to the Internet). To be able to access a website, the Internet browser needs to know the IP address to locate it on the server. Trying to remember the IP address for every website that you visit frequently can be difficult at best. This is where domain names come in; they are easy to remember and use identifiers that are linked to the IP addresses of the web servers that houses websites. Instead of trying to remember a long set of numbers, the Domain Name System (DNS) holds the IP address that is tied to the domain name. Once referenced, the DNS looks up the IP address and pulls up the website automatically.
How does it work?
When setting up a website, you purchase a domain name and a hosting account (a web server to house the website). These items can be purchased from two separate businesses or from the same. It is usually more cost-effective to purchase them separately. You may find that, although most hosting companies offer low-cost hosting, a cheaper price for a domain name can be found at companies who specialize in registering domain names. The same can be said for companies offering low-cost domain name registration; their hosting packages almost doubles the lowest packages offered elsewhere. After purchasing both elements (domain name and hosting account), the domain name needs to be pointing to (or referencing) the location of the hosting account. To do this, the Domain Name Servers need to be configured to the web servers of the hosting account. After all of this is done, the DNS will be able to point any browsers to the correct IP address of the website once the domain name is typed into the browser.

How to Check if a Folder Exists in Vb.NetIn Feburary 2016 10,
In Feburary 2016 10,
Type 'Dim pathName As String' in your VB.NET code to define a string variable to hold the path to the folder that you want to look for. This string variable is called 'pathName.' As an example, set the value of the string variable 'pathName' to 'C:\TestFolder.' This can be implemented using the following code; 'pathName = 'C:\TestFolder'.'
Type 'Imports System.IO' in the first line of your code page to import the 'System.IO' library into your VB.net code. The 'System.IO' is a .NET framework class library that is available to all .NET based code. As the code is being developed in VB.NET, this library is also automatically available for use to the developer. A class library is a collection of classes with various functions that programmers can use in their software applications.The 'DirectoryInfo' class is a part of the 'System.IO' class library that exposes functions for creating and moving through directories and sub-directories.
Type the line 'Directory.Exists(pathName)' to use the 'Exists' function of the 'DirectoryInfo class' to check if the 'C:\TestFolder' folder exists on your computer. The 'Exists' function will return a true boolean value if the folder exists, and it will return a false boolean value if the folder does not exist. To catch this boolean value, define a boolean variable by using the following code line: 'Dim answer As Boolean.' Use this 'answer' variable to accept the return value of the 'Exists' function by using the following code line: ' answer = Directory.Exists(pathName).'
Build and compile your code by clicking on the 'Project' option on the top tool bar and then clicking on 'Build.' Execute the code by clicking on the 'Debug' option on the top tool bar and then clicking 'Run.' The VB.net code will execute, check if the 'C:\TestFolder' exists on your computer and return an appropriate true or false value.

The Cost of Starting a WebIn Feburary 2016 08,
In Feburary 2016 08,
Registering a domain name is necessary for an online business. Once a business name is established, the domain name is registered at websites such as Dotster.com, Register.com and GoDaddy.com. The cost of a domain name is dependent on the extension. For most business owners, a .com extension is beneficial because it is the most commonly known extension among people. A one-year registration service for a .com domain name is around $15. This service needs to be renewed every year.
Hosting Service
Hosting services have a wide range of prices, and prices are determined by the platform the business uses. Programming a website in .NET is usually more expensive, whereas a PHP website can be hosted for as low as $5 to $10 a month. Free services are available, but free services require ads or popups, which is not professional for business purposes.
Database
Database service is for websites that host dynamic content. The most common databases for Internet websites are mySQL and SQL Server; the former is usually a free or minimally charged service from the host of the website, and the SQL Server costs slightly more and is used with .NET websites. SQL Server costs can be as low as $10 per month.
Programming and Design
Unless the business owners have programming and design experience, it's necessary to hire a professional programmer and designer. Some shops have both services in-house. The programming and design can be accomplished using separate service providers. The designer can provide a design that the programmer works with to create the web pages. The cost of a programmer and a designer is dependent on experience and the complexity of the website. Some professionals may charge as low as $20 per hour. More advanced sites may need a highly skilled programmer and designer, which can cost $50 to $75 per hour.
Computer Resources
Owning a web-based business means that you need a computer with high-speed online service. These costs are also dependent on location and type of service. High-speed Internet access is necessary for the business owner to communicate with clients, conduct research and upload new pages and images. The cost for Internet connect can run from $30 to $100 per month.
