Uploading site
I am trying to upload a website I built myself using Free FTP (well a test page anyway), however, even though the index.htm file shows up in the dashboard, the site itself still says "There's nothing on here yet".
I have the file in the 'site' subdirectory. Do I need to move it somewhere else or call it home.htm????

On your dashboard, click on settings. Under service settings there is a drop down menu. Change that to site, click save and that should be it.
Hope that helps

Simon,

You need to rename the file from index.htm to index.html and then it will work.

I am having the same problem. I have renamed my file to index.html and that did not work either.

Thanks Scott! I see what I was doing wrong...I had www. before website name. Thanks for the S-Drive! Great opportunity for me to learn how to upload web sites. Glad it was just me making it so complicated. Very easy to use FTP. Love the disscussion forum. A lot of great resources/advice for me to use as I am learning and practicing my HTML coding. Still have a lot to learn!
