If I buy a domain name from getdotted how do I upload stuff to it?

Do I have to use the freeola thing with the dial up or broadband thing that you have to pay for?
Because I don't have access to dial up and don't really want to fork out the extra costs.

So is there another way to do it all?
Can it be done using FTP?

No, you can do that :)

Just as long as you have the corrent dial-up number, username and password, you can connect though any dial-up modem via a phone line.

Can I dial up from someone elses computer who still has a dail up modem??

Just I know people who will let me use their computers to upload and change things if I give them the cash for the costs of using their line.

Is this possible or does it need to be done from my computer?

The cheapest option is probably just to buy a cheep moden, if you don't still have your old modem.

Dial in and upload your site and then disconnect and go back to surfing on your broadband.

With the 'average' website, you can upload the whole thing in about 10 mins and thats just a loacal rate call. If you updated your site once a month, it would probably cost you less than one pound a year.

Just use 123reg.co.uk for the name, and have it point to your current address.

Freeola do plan on allowing you to pay for the hosting monthly rather than through their dial-up, but when this will happen isn't specified at this time.

You have to dial up or if you have Freeola broadband then you can just connect direct...

I don't think they've launched the pay-to-upload from another ISP thing yet...

I see your point...

Dial up or get Freeola ADSL
