FrontPage is a Microsoft product that is used to build websites. After you have built your website with FrontPage, you'll need to publish your site to your account with InMotion Hosting. If you already have installed FrontPage extensions via cPanel, you'll need to publish your website via HTTP.

Do not attmept to upload your website using FTP if you have FrontPage extensions installed. Uploading the website with FTP while FrontPage Extensions are enabled will likely corrupt the extensions. They will need to be un-installed and re-installed.

2. Go to File -> Open Web
3. Locate the web files on your local Computer
4. Go to File -> Publish Web

6. Click "OK"
7. Enter your cPanel username for "Username" and your cPanel password for "Password"
