After you download it, Extract the files, open the folder called BusinessTemplate, then find index, right click it, and open it with notepad. It should look like this:
If you need a more detailed explanation here you go: [html]
When you setup a host, you have acess to your sites control panel. Depending on whcih host you use determines what kind of control panel you will have. Since I use bighosted I have a vistapanel. But if you use a site like bravenet, You use their version of a control panel.
Heres a picture of the Vistapanel:
After that, Click on subdomains which is under domains.
Choose your domain, and click create domain.
Please do not post after this post as I need to add more.
Ok, Continuing on, Go back to your cpanel and choose file manager under FTP Manager. It should look like this:
Click on what ever you named your site. It should be called Sitename.bighosted.com or what ever subdomain you chose.
After you get in there click on htdoc. htdoc is your root folder where ALL FILES ARE TO BE UPLOADED.
htdoc should look like this except with no files:
When you click upload, go to your desktop or where ever you saved the extracted folder from the beginning of the tutorial, and upload index.html, style, and ALL the images in the images folder.
Once you have selected all the files, click the checkmark, then click the checkmark again, and then click the back arrow right next to it. Your htdoc should now have files uploaded in it. You may now proceed with editting the index.html. If you need help editting it, just check back to the code I posted for a more detailed explanation. Once you are happy with your changes click the button that looks like a floppy disk and proceed back to your htdoc folder. Now you can go visit your site! just go to the adress bar and put in [URL="http://www.sitename.thesubdomainyouchose.com"]www.sitename.thesubdomainyouchose.com[/URL] If you left the sub domain as the default then it's just [URL="http://www.sitename.bighosted.com"]www.sitename.bighosted.com[/URL].
