Subject: RE: Tech: best free website?
Hi Pauline -

I also have Verizon as my ISP, and while I had to initially create my homepage using their cutesy tools, I had no problem then replacing it (and uploading the rest of my site) using my standard HTML editor and FTP program. The only constraint I've found is that my site can't be seen by folks in Australia (it's a strange world we live in!). However, I don't do anything especially fancy - I mostly use the site to demo sites I've worked on, and my niche is bare bones sites for lyrics and MP3 samples and such (though I've worked on other types of sites - but nothing with forms, dancing monkeys, or other fancy stuff).

I would highly recommend that you back up your complete site, either on your computer or a CD or somewhere - Verizon did manage to lose my site twice, though I think they've got that bug worked out now.

Good luck!
