How to attah a software download on a webpage

[Guest]

I am trying to put a download on my webpage as a give away at my site but it
doesn't work. What am I doing wrong? I put the zip filein my ftp file, does
it have to be unzipped? or am I totally doing it wrong? Please help me - Kim

All you have to do is place the file within your web, and make a link to it
exactly as if it was a web page. A Zip file is the best way as most browsers
won't try to view the file instead of downloading it.

Hope this helps,

You don't put the file on the page, you put the file in a folder. Then you
create a hyperlink from wherever you want (on whatever page(s) you want) to
the file to be downloaded.
