    I signed up for an account

    Now What?
    I see absolutely no instructions on to to upload my website to your servers. Also when I click on the "hosting" tab I get an unsecure site message. How do i proceed?

    The "Unsecure Site" warning is in the process of being fixed. Until then, ignore the warning, accept the certificate, or use the non-SSL link http://richardvandyk.x10.bz:2082

    As for creating your site, check out the wiki: http://x10hosting.com/wiki/Main_Page

    Upload files to your public_html folder and they are viewable on the internet. Use CPanel->Softaculous to install some software very quickly and easily. Any further questions, post back here. Welcome to X10!

    Thanks. Does this site accept Front Page extensions?

    Sorry, but Front Page extensions do not work with the current server configurations.

    No, I believe Front Page extensions were disabled some time ago.

    OK, thanks. There are old websites out there that list hosting websites such as this one as supporting Front Page but I guess they are outdated because it seems no one any longer supports FrontPage. I have to bite the bullet and convert my old website I suppose.

    As you say it is becoming outdated. It won't be a loss for you to get with the times.

    Frontpage websites have a distinct 90's feeling to them with all the graphics it generates. Try something like Joomla! or Drupal. They have a ton of really great themes that are ready to go, they just need you to insert your text. In fact, they can be installed in about 2 minutes if you use Cpanel -> Softatculous

    Could also try Wordpress, or just search for "Free CMS" online - there's a TON of different core softwares out there that can make rapid-publishing easier

    There have been a lot of complaints lately about Wordpress and HRU suspensions. So I didn't mention it
