Do you have a host for your site yet? You have most of the pieces but you still need a company that is going to host the domain and the files for you. Once you have that they will give you a an FTP address or something like that where you can go to upload your files and you will enter that info into the wizard for setting up your site in DW.

google the words domain host. avoid godaddy.com. if you're planning on using dreamweaver to create dynamic pages, be sure your prospective host supports the technology you prefer (php & mysql, for example). don't let em scam ya into payin more than $10/month (if that). if you're in the us, check out avid.net maybe.

once you select a host, sign up, etc., they'll need a lil time to configure it for you. you'll also need to let domain.com know the nameserver information the url resolves to your site before you start uploading your site.

Depending on what you are looking for in a site and unless it’s commercial most ISP’s include at least 10 MB of web space with an account. So I’d check with my Internet provider 1st. Plus they will have instructions for uploading your files.
