    Your account will be set up instantly.. Your site can be uploaded to our servers immediately after receiving the welcome email, which will contain the access procedures for your account, plus the password for the user name chosen during signup. In fact, we recommend that clients start uploading their site as soon as possible after setup is complete, so that once domain transfer is completed, the site will be available for use by your visitors.

  6. Where should I put CGI scripts for my domain?
    All CGI scripts should be uploaded to the cgi-bin folder,located under the web folder, for your domain. Be sure to follow the instructions for the script you are uploading regarding setting permissions on the files and folders you create, as they vary from script to script

  7. I uploaded my files, but I don't see my page?
    This is the order in which the web server looks for a page to put up as the "home" page: >Directory Index default.htm index.php index.phtml index.pht index.cgi index.shtml index.html welcome.cgi welcome.html index.htm Just delete the index.php file and anything after it in this list will then come up automatically. Notice that "home.html" is NOT on the list and so will not show up as your home page. You would need to rename it.
