For Real This Time


Last week I thought that I had finished and published my website, but I didn’t. So I have it here for real this time. The problem before was that it was coming from my desktop, not straight from the web, so only I could see it. I forgot to actually put it on the Internet through Filezilla. So today I put all of my pages into Filezilla, but then it still didn’t work. It was online, but it looked like my old site, except for my new index page, which I had just recently created. I could not figure it out. So I just moved all of the files into my “old” folder within Filezilla and put the pages into the program fresh and it worked. I don’t know why or how, but it did. So now you can see it too! It’s very simple, but for me it’s a huge step! And I think I’m getting very close to finishing the site, which is exciting. I just need to put up a few more pages. The design is done though, so I just have to fill in the skeleton with the pages I haven’t finished yet. Because I’m not sure yet what my research will be exactly, and because this is my first try with computer things, I designed my website to reflect that. I figured I can change it if or when I need to make it more scholarly, so for now, it’s just a presentation of what I learned to do with the computer. Check it out at maggiewaring.net!
