CREATING A WEBPAGE

The is the main folder, called public_html, inside your account is where all web page files are stored. Any files that you store in your public_html directory will be readable by anyone on the Internet. You can access files that you place in the public_html directory by going to http://www.vermontel.net/~username (username is your VTel Internet account name) (Don't forget the "~")

Normally when you open your web page you will see a listing of all of the files inside your public_html directory; however, if there is a file in that directory named index.html, you will receive it instead of the listing.
