Now that you've created a site,
Magically (through the power of ftp) your page is put into your account on a remote (meaning "not on your computer") server and is instantly viewable by the World Wide Web community. The remote server your Web page is on is the WWW server maintained by ITSS.
By doing your work locally and sending it to the remote server for public viewing, you have a mirror image of your Web site on your computer. Make sure as you change your pages locally you remember to send them to the remote server when you are happy with them. If you don't update the remote server when you make changes locally you will have lost your mirror image. This can become very confusing as you may not know what version of your Web site people are seeing.
Of course, no one knows your page exists, but that's a different topic.
