IMPORTANT: You must wait for your domain to resolve to our servers before you can upload your site using FTP, FrontPage, Dreamweaver, etc. If you are transferring your domain, you must wait 24 to 72 hours for the transfer to complete. If you ordered a new domain with us, you must wait 24 hours for the new domain to resolve. You may use the File Manager immediately.
There are many ways to upload your web pages to our servers: FTP programs, the File Manager in your account Control Panel, and integrated upload utilities in programs like Frontpage and Dreamweaver.
General Uploading InfoWhich ever way you choose to connect to your account, you will need the following pieces of information from your Welcome email to get started:
Your User Name........(case sensitive)
Your Password..........(case sensitive)
Your Address............. yourdomain.com
Directory structure of your account
| tmp | This directory holds your access log files |
| Mail area for your domain | |
| domain-secure | Same as the www directory |
| public_html | This is the directory where your site files go |
IMPORTANT: DO NOT DELETE ANY DIRECTORIES IN YOUR ACCOUNT, OR YOUR SITE MAY BECOME INOPERATIVE.
When you upload your site to our servers, you will want to make sure that your main page is named index.html, as this file is what gets loaded when people come to your site. Other default pages are actually useable (index.htm, default.htm, index.phtml, etc.), but the default "Under Construction" page that comes with every new account is named index.html, and will not be replaced unless it is specifically deleted or overwritten by your own index.html.
IMPORTANT: index.html takes precedence over index.htm. If you upload your site, and your main page is named index.htm, the "Under Construction" page will still be loaded. If your main page is named index.htm, delete the index.html.
As soon as a file is uploaded to our servers,
it is available for all to see. If, after uploading a file, you
are still unable to see the updated file via your browser, try
hitting the "Refresh" or "Reload" button.
Some browsers, especially Netscape, have caches that are not cleared
out easily. You may need to manually empty your browser cache
to see a new or updated page on your site.
