hosting flash website
What are the basic steps needed to host a flash website?
I recently purchased a flash template online and have finished editing and it’s ready to be published. All the files are contained in one main folder (website_main) and in that folder are the other following folders:
pictures1
pictures2
pictures3
site
site_flash
sources
folders ‘pictures1-3′ contain the jpeg images i used in my flash site and the folder ’sources’ contains another folder named ‘flash.’ Inside the ‘flash’ folder are the .fla and html documents that were created when I hit ‘publish’ in FlashCS3.
I plan on using godaddy.com to do the hosting but since I’m fairly new to all this, I wasn’t quite sure what steps I need to take. I’ve already tried checking the godaddy.com FAQs but couldnt find what I was looking for. Any useful advice or links would be helpful! =D
thanks!
Godaddy and 1and1 are good places just for registering domain names, not getting your website hosted. Specially Godaddy is not a user-friendly web host.
As an experienced webmaster I recommend BlueHost service which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.
