You can upload files through FTP even when your domain is under
propagation.
You need to use server IP ADDRESS instead of ftp.yourdomain.com
[ftp://ftp.yourdomain.com/] as HOST NAME.

You should upload your html files in the PUBLIC_HTML Directory. This
is the only directory in your web server that is viewable on the
internet.
You already have an INDEX.HTML page in your PUBLIC_HTML Directory as a
place holder.
Please replace it with your own INDEX.HTML or INDEX.HTM page.
ASCII and BINARY are _MODES _by which you transfer your files into
your web server. Text files and other common files like your html
pages, CGI Scripts,PHP scripts, Javascripts, css files, should be
uploaded in ASCII MODE. Images like your GIF'S and JPEG'S are uploaded
in BINARY MODE.
Your default filename is INDEX.HTML or INDEX.HTM page. So you can
lookup your site instead of typing the whole
WWW.YOURNAME.COM/INDEX.HTML, you can just type WWW.YOURNAME.COM on
your browser.
However, if you developed sites using PHP or Perl you can use
index.php or index.php3, index.cgi are also supported.
Please make sure you DO NOT upload your homepage, INDEX.HTML or
INDEX.HTM in uppercase ...

Apple iWeb is a template-based WYSIWYG website creation tool. Your
iWeb program is designed by default to publish a site to your MobileMe
account (formerly your .mac account).
However, you do have the power to publish to another hosting company,
like FastWebHost.
If you have iWeb '09 (version 3.0) or later, follow these steps from
the Mac on which you published your web site.
