Special note to Macintosh owners: Do not use spaces in your file names. Most computers (including ours) will not understand what you are trying to do if there is a space in the filename.

Files named default.htm, default.html, index.html, index.htm, and default.asp will be loaded automatically by our server (they are server defaults) if a visitor goes to your web site without specifying a file name.

Example: http://www.linkline.com/ actually brings up the default.html file that lives in the directory that stores all www.linkline.com’s web site.

Web page files are generally transferred to our servers by FTP (File Transfer Protocol). When transferring files, make sure you use the following table to send the files correctly. If you do not follow the table, your web pages will probably not work as you expect them to.

Important conventions to use
When creating your pages to be viewed on our server, there are certain conventions that you must follow in order for the server to correctly serve your pages.

1. When someone wishes to access your pages from our server, they will most likely type in your URL something like this:
   http://www.yourdomainname.com/services
    
   In order for the server software to pull up your pages, there must be a page in your directory named “default.htm”, “default.html”, "index.htm" or "index.html". This is what the server looks for as a default file to bring up as the first page in your set of pages.

Try not to incorporate spaces into any of the names of your files or folders, as it will just be more complicated for you, and anyone viewing your pages.
