Yeah - they're pretty bad... and the students loose ownership of the
content on most of them.

So you need a machine on the net, on a decent net connection, which is
up 24/7.  None of this is free unfortunately.

You'll probably want your own domain name too, which is somewhere
between $50 and $100 a year (I'm sure I'll be corrected on that.)

If you don't want to update pages via FTP, how do you want to do it?

It sounds like you want a web hosting service, or a box on TC cable
(remember you're not allowed servers running on DSL)

Whats your budget?
