Creating Webpages

Webspace.ship.edu is the new web server where Shippensburg University Faculty, Staff, Departments and Organizations may create personal websites.  The web server platform is Microsoft Internet Information Server.  

Faculty and staff who are creating personal websites now have the ability to save their website files directly to a folder on their on-campus workstations.  In addition, departments and organizations may use a simple drag-and-drop FTP interface through Internet Explorer to save their website files.

Directions for drag and drop are at http://webspace.ship.edu/

You may then use any method you prefer to create your pages. Instructional Design and Development Services offers some worksheets outlining how to create web pages.
