NOW I'VE GOT THE INTERNET "NOW I WANT A WEB SITE!"

WE'RE SURE THESE WORDS HAVE BEEN ECHOED ALL OVER THIS PLANET.

It's really true for an awlful lot of us. An individual gets on the internet starts looking around and sure enough not long uintil they want a web site of their own. Sometimes it might even take a year or two but the day will come. Just about everyone decides to build a web-site for them selves.

Here's where we've tried to make the process a little simpler. Here at Sweetwater we've reserved you 10 megs of personal webspace, which cannot be used for commercial purposes. Microsoft's "Front Page" is not available for use on these personal web pages. If you want a commerical site we'll be glad to help but there will be a charge. We suggest you build your own personal site first. When that's complete, then go for a commerical site. It can be yours for as little as $14.95 per month. Be careful not to put too much personal information up on your site and remember that Microsoft Front Page can't be used for Personal sites here at Sweetwater Internet.

We provided you with listings on browsers, (Netscape and Mozilla can even be used as HTML Editors.)FTP Programs for uploading files, HTML editors some are even free, and several Image Editing Applications. Free, Low cost or free trial programs is what we've tried to give you without exception. I guess that's about it for now.
You can find all the information you need to upload files right here at our personal web site 24 hour support location.
