Logging in (The connect button in most FTP clients)  
Using your FTP program, Select The site you configured and Log in (connect)
to your Virtual Server. You should automatically be switched to your user directory by the FTP program. 

Your index.html file
The first directory you see is your user root directory. In order for your home page to load when a WWW user types http://www.YourName.com, you must have a file called index.html, index.htm, or index.shtml (for server side includes) in this directory. Note that we have installed a customized Homepage in your account index.html. Use this as an example to set up your Homepage. Your FTP program will permit you to make sub directories off your user directory (such as /images, /maps, etc) to better organize your account. 

User Permissions
Your account has "permissions" to access all files and directories contained in or
below your home directory (with the exception of your logs directory and a few system files).  The directory structures above your home directory, contain system
files and the files of other users of the system. neighbor's files.

Note: Please keep careful track of your disk space usage. You are responsible for staying below the limit of your specific plan. If this limit is exceeded you will be billed for the additional space.
