Using a specific font in web development

I downloaded the Franchise Bold Font. I know how to use it in my code, but where do I put the font files in my webserver root so that they get found and used?

the URL is: http://www.derekweathersbee.com/franchise/

To use a font on a web page it needs to be a WebFont - you can't just put a TTF file onto a webserver.

Font Squirrel offer a service to create/convert WebFonts - there's a fair bit of info on how it works there and a Google for webfonts will bring up a tonne more.

Obviously you need to rights to do convert and use the font - the font you're using appears to be free but if I were you I'd credit the creator/throw them a link somewhere!!
