    What is the purpose of the personal website?

    We envision this being used for communicating with students and parents about class information and assignments.

    We have enabled Personal Websites for the staff domain but not the student domain.


    What is my personal website address?

    Your personal website resides on the same server as your email in a directory using a tilde ("~") and your login name. For example, Fred Flintstone's personal web page would be http://staff.nebo.edu/~fred.flintstone/.


    What should my main web page be called?

    Your main web page must be called default.html.


    What do people see if I don't have a personal website?

    If somebody tries to hit your personal website but you haven't created a main web page they will get a "404 - File not found" error message (specific web browsers may add text to the error like "the page cannot be found").


    Are there limits to how many web pages I can have?

    Yes, there are storage limitations on your personal web page. You will not be able to upload additional files if your allotted storage is used.

    How many web pages can I have?


    Can I FTP my files to my personal website?

    The main way to load files to your personal website if through the WebMail interface. However, this can be cumbersome if you have a large number of files to load.

    From within the district, you can FTP files to your personal website. For security reasons, this is not allowed from outside the district.

    Configure your FTP client with the following information:


    How can I get help setting up my personal website?

    Many of our schools have employees who have set up web pages. They may be your best first contact. If you need additional help, contact us for training.
