Almost any host will allow ftp (the usual way to move files from a PC to the host). Like GoDaddy << thanks, Danica!

There are web tools that my incorporate an ftp program but there are others that work very well. There is an addon FireFTP for Firefox and FireZilla which is a standalone program which both allow ftp from a PC, windows based, drag-n-drop. They are both free.

My sons http://gotnarcosis.com is on GoDaddy and we have never had a problem to date over about 4 years. Not a big site, but he and I have several hundred files out there.


I was born in Great Falls, Mt. My parents moved when I was 5. I found them when I was 10 - they were in California.

Firefox® 21.0

Thank you for the great responses. The software is hard coded for an FTP site, I have Picasa and Dropbox, and I've tried both of those solutions.

When it comes to webhosting, I'm clueless, but I will bang away at this in the next few days.

Again, thank you for your time responding.

Update:

Created and registered a domain name, subscribed for 36 months of hosting through Bluehost.com.

Configured both IP cams to upload clips to the FTP site. Thanks again for the suggestions and advice.

Now, if I could just remember how I did it when it crashes in a couple of months....
