Tutorial: Website Help

Tips and Cheats for n00bs and their websites:

FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol, which in modern English means a place that you run your entire website, chances are you use Smart FTP, Filezilla, or Core FTP.
PHP is what most webpages are saved as, say I wanted to make a page for layouts, I would make a new page and save it as layouts.php.
CuteNews is a blogging program that you can use to help update your customers on your life/site, etc.
Whatever you do, don't jock somebody's stylesheet, especially someone who is more advanced than you are; one, they can get your website deleted, and two, people aren't going to visit a site that has jocked goods. Just make a credits page, it makes your site more professional, and you are safe.
Learn about your FTP program, the only one that I've used that I have no problems with is Core FTP; but Smart is useful too, just not on my computer (;

Here are some helpful sites/downloads that you might want to look at:
Smart FTP Download
FileZilla FTP Download
Core FTP Download (I recommend this FTP)
CuteNews Download

There are a lot of useful sites, and if you pay attention, for most programs you download there are files called readme's--read them! They usually are really helpful in installing/problems that you have.
