How do I upload my webpage to my new site?

 

 Using Ftp

The easiest way to use ftp to upload you site is to use the builtin ftp client found in Windows.  First open your web page files by browsing to them in windows.  Select them all and right click.  Then left click copy.

Nest click on the start button on the lower left side of your Windows Desktop.  Then click on Run.  In the run dialog box type in explorer.exe and then click Ok.

Windows Explorer should appear.  When it does, enter the following in the address bar: ftp://domainname.xxx  where domainname is the domain that you registered for your site.  (ie. cconsultants.com) then press enter.

You will be prompted for a userid and password.  Enter the ones that we provided for you when you registered with us and click Log On.

Then double click on the httpdocs folder.  This is the root of your website.  When that folder opens, right click in the area on the right side of the window and select past.  This will copy the files you selected previously to the httpdocs folder.

When it is down copying, your website should be published.  If the default page still comes up, you did not name the default page correcly.  It needs to be either index.htm or index.html.  If you did name it index.htm or index.html check to see if the default index.html file is still in the directory.  If it is, delete it by right clicking on it and selecting delete.

If you still have problems, create a help desk ticket by logging into the Plesk interface and selecting help desk from the left column.

How do I manage my site?

 To manage your site, start Internet Explorer and enter https://www.yourdomainname.xxx:8443.  Where yourdomainname.xxx is replaced with the domain name you registered.  Enter the userid and password we supplied you at setup time.

If you need more information, please refer to the Plesk Client Manual.

When I try to open the website control panel I get an error.

The Control Panel Website uses a self signed certificate, your web browser will through up an error on it. It is perfectly safe to use it. If you don't want the error every time, when the page comes up, right click on the page and select properties. Then tell it to install the certificate.
