How do I upload files from my computer to my web site?

You can easily upload images and other files to your web site with our online tool, Easy Upload. To upload files with Easy Upload:

  1. Visit the Create & Update or Index tab of your GeoCities Control Panel, then click "Easy Upload." (You can also access Easy Upload by clicking the "File Manager" link on the Create & Update, Manage, or Index tabs of your GeoCities Control Panel, then selecting the "Upload Files" link in the upper-right corner of the File Manager.)
  2. Click the "Browse..." button to locate a file on your computer's hard drive.
  3. When you've found your file, click "Open."
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each file you'd like to upload.

    Note: If you want to upload more than five files, change the value of the "Number of Files to Upload" menu and click the "Display" button. Keep in mind that the total size of the uploaded files may not exceed 5MB.

  5. If you'd like Easy Upload to automatically convert all of your file names into lowercase, select the corresponding checkbox. We recommend doing this.
  6. If you'd like Easy Upload to convert all instances of the .htm extension in your files to .html, select the corresponding checkbox.
  7. When you're ready to upload all of your files, choose the "Upload Files" button.

On the following page, you should see a confirmation that your files have been uploaded successfully.

Note: Before uploading your files, make sure your file names do not contain any special characters, symbols, or spaces. Including these elements in your file names can cause your upload to fail.

If you have GeoCities Plus, you can also use FTP to upload your files. Learn more.
