Hello everyone,
I have a slight problem. I have designed two websites in iWeb. I pay for hosting through godaddy.com. I want to host my new website on the same account. However, when I go to ftp the website it tells me there's two "index.html" pages. Does anyone know why it's putting both website in the same folder on the server? Is there any way to avoid this?
Any advice is much appreciated.
Yes I do know. Basically when you publish to your FTP directly within iWeb it makes a folder for every site you have, then creates an index.html file to direct to the first site. Your problem may be that the url is pointing to a subfolder perhaps, or there is already an index.html file on the server that you just need to FTP in and delete then try to republish.
I recommend publishing to a folder anyway, then manually uploading it to your server. That way you can add some SEO meta-tags to your files before you upload. Plus if you don't want your site to be in a sub-folder you can just upload it to the root level. for example if you publish with iWeb your url becomes http://site.com/sitefolder/page.html and if you manually upload it to the root level you can avoid that middle site folder and your url become http://site.com/page.html.
Hope that helps.
