Web Site Publisher
the easiest and quickest way to publish your website ...
New version released - 19th April 2008.
Web Site Publisher is a free tool which will publish (i.e. copy or upload)
the web site you develop on your computer to the web. Once your site is on the
web you can make changes to the copy on your computer knowing that Web Site
Publisher will update to the web just those parts that you have changed.
Web Site Publisher is an intelligent FTP publishing tool and can be used to
publish any web site that would normally be uploaded using FTP. It is intended
for Webmasters who just want to get their site updated with a minimum of effort
and fuss and in the shortest time possible. It is designed to be as fast and as
efficient a means of publishing a website as possible and its totally free!
Key features are:
- Simple - Single click to update a website and doesn't
require any technical expertise.
- Intelligent - Only uploads files that need updating.
Either because they are new or have been edited. (It is also intelligent
enough to spot if a file has been deleted using another FTP client and
upload it.) This significantly reduces the time to update a website.
- Smart - Deletes files from the web site that no longer
exist in the source directory. This feature can be switched on and off,
although normally it would seem sensible to allow it to delete obsolete
files.
- Extensible - Supports multiple web sites - so you can
use Web Site Publisher to update more than one web site (on different
servers).
- Helpful - Automatically scans your local html source
files to see if a website has changed and therefore is in need of begin
published. This is done before a connection to the server is
established.
- Hassle free - removes the hassle of working out what
changes need to be uploaded.
- Timely - Automatically adjusts for any time zone and
time drift differences between the local computer and the FTP server.
- Supports both dial-up networking and permanent internet
connections - If desired a web site can be associated with a specific
dial-up account. This allows Web Site Publisher to determine
automatically which web sites can be updated for the current connection.
This is useful if you look after more than one web site and especially
if a web site can only be updated when connected on a specific dial-up
(or LAN/broadband) connection.
All this and its free!!
