Hi there. to the forums.

Yes you can.

It all depends on the amount of stuff you want to put on. Remember that you are limited to approximately 50Mb.

Just create two folders for the two different websites.

eg. Make two folders: site1 and site2 and then in each of them have a folder for images, and then seperate index and other html pages.

a good tool to FTP (transfer files from your PC to your upload area on the net) is to use a simple program called WSFTP available free here:

hi

You can run as many sites as will fit in the 55MB space allocated.

For uploading I would recommend an FTP application, I tend to use the FireFTP extention for Firefox, or FileZilla, both are free. You can do it using your browser, but it can be a bit 'fiddly'.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'manage separately'?

- you would have the sites installed in their own folders off the 'root' of your main address

e.g.

homepage.ntlworld.com/user.name/site1

homepage.ntlworld.com/user.name/site2

with an index.htm file in each with the main site code.

You could have an index file in the 'root' offering a choice of link, or just navigate to the appropriate site, directly.

- but Halcyon types faster than me

Thankyou I will have a play and let you know how I get on
