Dear Dr. Website: What is the best way to track referrers (individuals) to my website in order to reward them for their referral? Paypal seems to do this through their service, and I need to be able to do the same thing. Answer: Another way of tracking referrals is to use a service such as our own TheCounter.com. With the counter provided by TheCounter.com, you can see the referrers, IPs, OS, browser, and many more stats for your site.
Finally, you could always use some ASP, Perl or PHP code to track your
site's referrers, but this would take some knowledge of the language and a certain level of programming skills.
--Dr.Website Question: Answer: Once you have contracted your web host, you'll need some FTP software to move your web pages to your host's web server. You can use any FTP software, such as WS_FTP or Cute FTP. These can be found and downloaded from CWS Apps: http://cws.internet.com/ftp.html When you created your site using Netscape Composer, the pages were probably saved on your local hard drive. You'll need to start composer and figure out where they were stored, and once you have done that, you'll start your FTP program and point to the web site files on the left, and your host's FTP server on the right hand side (of the FTP program). Then moving them to your host is a simple matter of clicking a button or dragging and dropping
them from one side to the other.
