Publishing Your Site

When you’re finished designing your website, and you’re ready to share your work with your friends and family, publishing is just one click away.

To publish your site to .Mac you must have a .Mac membership or a trial membership. Enter your .Mac account information in the .Mac System Preferences window, and iWeb will use those settings when you click the Publish button.

Tips

Announce your site

After you publish your website you’ll see a button called Announce. Click this button and you’ll open an email message that you can use to let people know about your new site. Anyone who has access to the Internet can visit your site.

Password protect your site

You can also restrict your site to only those who have a user name and password. Go to the Site Inspector and click the Password tab. Here you can enter the user name and password you want visitors to use in order to gain access to your site.

Steps

Publish your website to .Mac

Click the Publish button in the toolbar.
A progress bar appears as your site is being uploaded to .Mac.
Once your site has been published, a message will appear inviting you to visit your site.
