index.htmlthat should be what the file name is. The apache software, well most web servers, look for a index.html file in each folder as that folders default page. You can change that but thats a little bit more advanced stuff

[iGuest 3]

yeah, index.whatever-extension-you-want-on-the-end

 

Place it in your public_html directory

Thanks for the answer i never new how to do that either...haha i think i will try that when the Free Hosting comes back.

The www folder is just a shortcut to the public_html folder. It's best to put it in the public_html folder. Sometimes the www folder doesn't work.

You can redirect it with Cpanel... Or just rename the index.html to index2.html then It'll take index.php the default...

The Best way to do it is to use what's called a FTP Server.
go to https://www.smartftp.com/ and download that.

Then Sign in, then on the left you'll see a bunch of folders, double click on the one that says Public_html. Drag your index file to that folder.

and that's it! You got it! 8)

then to load the rest of your webpages. just drag them all to the public_html folder.
