TreeTrumpet is a very easy way to get your family history online. It is simple to install, configuration is optional, and all you need to do is upload a GEDCOM file to update it.

TreeTrumpet was created to make your genealogy look good to visitors, but also to attract visitors. Every time you upload a new GEDCOM file TreeTrumpet notifies Google, Bing and Yahoo that your site has been updated. The search engines can then send visitors to your site.

TreeTrumpet needs to be uploaded to a web server which supports PHP 5.3 or higher. I personally use https://www.bluehost.com/, but any web hosting which supports PHP should work just as well. Your hosting provider will have instructions for uploading files, either through the browser, or through FTP.

Unzip pedigree-viewer.zip and upload everything inside up to your server. That's all there is to the install.

Export a GEDCOM file from your genealogy program and name it family.ged. Upload it to the webserver. To update the site, simply upload a new file named family.ged.

If you want people to be able contact you by email, or if you want to disable certain pages, copy config.php.example to be named config.php and edit the values inside. Upload it to the web server.
