Getting Started with Course Web Hosting

To get started with your account, make sure you've completed all tasks on the checklist.

• Checklist

  • Your course account name. If your course requires web hosting, your professor will provide you with one. Alternatively check your SCE Account page for your course account name.
  • Have your UHCL account and password
  • Have a computer capable of FTP (Pretty much every computer out there)

Next Steps

1. Connect to your Web Hosting FTP account¹
2. Copy your website files to the "pages" folder in the account you connected to in step 1.
3. Check your home page by visiting

http://dcm.uhcl.edu/[course_account_name]

Please note: All course accounts are subject to deletion at the end of each semester. You are responsible for making backups of any files you put in the account.

¹ If FTP doesn't work for you, consider mapping a network drive to your computer. Check out the Course Hosting Help and Guides page for more info.
