Where
to upload your files
The
Home Directory:
Your
html files, and or the files you want to make
accessible to the World Wide Web must be
uploaded to your account. When you first FTP
into your account, you'll be taken to your
"Home" directory. Don't confuse this with your
"web directory." The home directory is "not"
accessible to the World Wide Web; it's a private
directory where critical system files reside. DO
NOT delete files that have been created by the
system, otherwise your web site may disappear
into cyber oblivion!
The
public_html
and
www
directory - (Where web accessible files are
placed)
These
are the two directories, where files you want
accessed from the web must be placed. Open the
folder "public_html" , which is your "web
accessible directory." The folder named "www" is
actually a shortcut to public_html, (both of
them take you to your web directory). Upload the
files you want accessible to your visitors and
feel free to make the appropriate
sub-directories you'll require.
