Good to see you have started a site John, thanks for the linkage as well :)
I suggest SmartFTP for transferring files to your site (http://www.smartftp.com). FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol, and as the name says, it is a protocol for transferring files :wink:

If you use Internet Explorer, you can also access FTP in that, by typing in ftp.blahblah.com (blahblah.com being whatever domain / subdomain your host want you to use).

I don't know the setup of your free host, they may have an online file manager which means FTP transfers can't be made.

But seeing you have the site up, and it appears to have quite a few pages, it looks like you know what to do already :)
