How do you transfer a HTML file to the internet?

First you have to have a File Server or a Host that will allow you to upload your file. Then you can use a type of program that is known as a "File Transfer Protocol" software. This program will log-in to the Host's File Server and locate the appropriate folder and move the program for you. You can search the internet and find free FTP software to do this. BUT you have to have a website to upload the file to. You can register for a website NAME. You can do this yourself or some places will do this for you and then rent you the file server space for your files.
