Publishing a personal web site at AUP is as simple as placing files in a special folder within your personal file storage space.

Your site will appear at http://ac.aup.edu/netid, where "netid" is your AUP NetID (e.g. a99999 for a student or jdoe for an employee).

You can develop your site using HTML / XHTML and PHP.

Publishing your site

• Create a folder called public_web in your file storage space (if the folder doesn't exist already).
• Place your HTML or PHP files in this folder.

Important notes:

• The public_web folder must be at the top level of your file storage space; it cannot be within a subfolder.
• The public_web folder must contain a file called index.html or index.php otherwise your web site will not be visible. This will be your site's default front page.
• The size of your site is limited by your personal file storage quota.

If you have further questions about personal web sites, please send an e-mail to the (helpdesk@aup.edu). Please note however that we cannot help you develop your site.
