Open FrontPage Explorer.
Choose "File - New - FrontPage Web".
In the New FrontPage Web window will be three options:
1) a "One Page Web"
2) "Import an Existing Web"
3) From "Wizard" or "Template"
Choosing Option 1 creates a new web, with one HTML page.
Choosing Option 2 or 3 opens the corresponding Wizard and walks you through the steps creating your new web.
After choosing the type of web to create in Step 1, you then need to choose a title for your web. Place it in the "Choose a title for your FrontPage web:" window. Below this window will be the local file location that you would like to store your web. If this location is not appropriate, choose "Change" and follow the instructions. then "OK" and FrontPage will create the necessary files for your new web

Publishing a web

Open the web you created on your hard drive.
In FrontPage Explorer, Choose File - Publish "FrontPage Web" and the Publish window will appear. If your destination web does not appear in the "Publish FrontPage Web to:" window, choose "More Webs". Type the location of the web to be published to "yourdomain.com" or an IP address "123.123.123.123."
In the open window. Choose "OK". If you want to only publish the changed pages since last publishing, place a check in the "Publish changed pages only" box.
Choose "OK".

Creating a web "live" on your server

Follow the steps above until FrontPage asks for the location of the new web.
In this window type your server address that your WPP has provided for you.
It will either be in general browser form "www.mydomain.com" or an IP address "123.123.123.123."
To complete the process, follow the same steps as above for the web's name and so forth.
