Default How Do I? [In Illustrator]

When i have done a logo using Adobe Illustrator, how do I save it as a jpeg file to upload onto websites such as 'Design By Humans, or 99 Designs'? Everytime i do the quality is awful!

Help needed urgently.

Thanks.

Are you exporting the JPG at 300dpi and CMYK?

I save the .ai, make a document the size I want in PS, and place the .ai file there (File->Place).

ardcor, wtf? 300DPI and cmyk on something that should go on web?!!

You can just go to File> export. There should be a JPEG option on the filetype drop down menu.
