MyWeb Support

Overview

MyWeb is a self-service option to provide individual HTML web space to faculty, staff and students for hosting academic-related content or research. Creating a website in this web space requires basic knowledge of HTML. There are no programming languages installed on the server. Sites have a 500MB quota.

MyWeb is not intended to be used for hosting private or personal content not directly related to academic work or research. MyWeb is not approved for storing sensitive data.

To create your web space:

1. Log in to our self-help PiratePanel application at piratepanel.ecu.edu.
2. Choose Create Web Space and agree to the terms and conditions.
3. Select the type of access, complete the captcha field and click Submit.

If you would like web space that does not require knowledge of HTML, we recommend our WordPress service.
