This article takes into consideration that you are already running ads on eBay in which you can get your HTML from, or are experienced with HTML. For this reason, we will not go too in depth on how to build a complicated web page, but guide you through getting your first simple web page completed and showing to the public. I do, however, provide some links to some excellent resources.

CoffeeCup HTML

First, you are going to need an HTML editor of some kind. If you don’t have one, we have provided a link below to a program called CoffeeCup HTML. Click on the link and install the software. You will need to find the “Download Now” link next to “The HTML Editor” title.

Once you have installed your CoffeeCup, run it. A screen similar to this will open:

We will quickly go over how you can make your home page:

1. Click “File,” then “New”.
2. Select “Blank HTML File,” and click “Open”.
3. Between the “

” and “” tags, type, “Hi! Welcome to my web site!”.
4. Click “File,” then “Save As”.
5. Navigate to “c:article”.
6. Type “index.html” in the “File Name” textbox, the click “Save”.

Note: You will lose the existing “index.html” file unless you rename it.

7. Overwrite any existing date in this directory.
8. Open up you web browser and enter your “yourname.no-ip.com” address in to the address bar.

What just happened? Lets hope you get your new welcome page. It would seem that you have just completed setting up your web server and creating its default page. Now all you have to do is place your article in its appropriate directory, in this case the “Widgets” directory, and create a link to it in your home page.

HTML Resources

I’m sure you will need some help developing the rest of your website, so I have given you some resources to do just that. You can check out the following resources below:

XP lets you rename files in bulk by simply selectin’ multiple files within Windows Explorer and pressin’ de F2 key. When you use this feature, de OS applies de name you enter to de first file and applies de same name with a number in parendeses to de oder files you selected (de file extensions remain unchanged).

For example, if you select de followin’ files,
* notes.doc
* figures.xls
* disney.jpg
* holiday.gif

and rename de first file (notes.doc) to SoD.doc, XP renames de remainin’ files as follows:
* SoD (1).xls
* SoD (2).jpg
* SoD (3).gif

Lets say you have downloaded some game or application that was 50 parts big, and you had to rename them all from .bmp to .rar to extract them.

You can easily create a batch file that does that for you.

Open Notepad

Fill in de notepad:

CODE
ren *.bmp *.rar

Of course, you have to edit dese two extensions to fit de files you want to convert. Save this file as renamer.bat and run it in de directory where you want to rename your downloads.

If you have a file you wish to upload and its too large for a free webhost and you still want it online try this method.

1) www.rarlab.com: download rar and cut de file up into 1MB files.
2) Mass Rename them to .doc (i forgot how to do it but its via CMD)
3) www.hostultra.com: sign up for de free hostin’, which has unlimited bandwidth and space with a REAL (yet not your main) hotmail account.
4) Upload de files via FTP
5) Goto www.projectw.org
6) and tell people de link ie. www.hostultra.com/blah/blah1.doc - blah100.doc
7) Use Flashget to download!

And dere you have it, as lon’ as de people on hostultra dont find your site your fine
