Anyone know how to publish dreamweaver 8 sites?

expired domain names
Helen asked:

I’ve connected to the server (FTP), Put my files in the Root site & it done it successfully. Now when I click on preview, it says:
Address Not Found

www.”mysite”.net could not be found. Please check the name and try again.

The browser could not find the host server for the provided address.

* Did you make a mistake when typing the domain? (e.g. “ww.mozilla.org” instead of

“www.mozilla.org”)

* Are you certain this domain address exists? Its registration may have expired.

* Are you unable to browse other sites? Check your network connection and DNS server settings.

* Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing.

Can you even put dw sites on the internet? Can you put it on the internet as how you registered the domain? “www.mysite.com”? HELP!

    You need to save the file as ‘myfile.html’

    Then apply for hosting either free or paid depending on your need. (Try 000webhost.com).

    Then apply for a domain name (www.mysite.com). These are cheap, for a .co.uk only £6 every 2 years. .com is £8 every year.

    Now link them up. The hosting should show you how to, it will probably be under addon domains.

    Now on the hosting collect the ftp information.

    Using filezilla or another ftp client (i wouldn’t reccomend using dreamweaver for this) connect to your hosting and upload your files into the public_html folder).

    Hope this helps!
