This is a bluehost question posted by kchickeymonkey on 08 September 2008

Please someone help me. I’m very frustrated. I am fairly new to the whole website design etc. I am over here ready to cry because I can’t seem to figure out why my website won’t show up. Let me tell you everything I have done, and please tell me what I need to do! I know I am missing an important step somewhere, but I don’t have any clue where!

These are the steps I have already taken (in order.)

1. Went to my file manager and uploaded all my files to public_html folder. (I even created new folders for every file under the public_html).

2. I uploaded this into my access folder (and of course changed my domain name-it’s a .net, though.)

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

(this does not show up in the file when I click on it, but at the bottom of my screen, it says java/widget is there.

Please tell me what I am missing to view my webpage. It is getting so frustrating to me. I thought this would be as simple as uploading the files and then I can see the site, but this is apparently not the case.
