    GD hosting is a bit different than cPanel. When you ftp into the account you are in public_html. Just place your files there.

    To get started simply open your hosting control panel and point the domain to the account. Then change the namesevers to point to the proper place.

    Upload your file and after the dns resolves you will be able to see your site.

    If you have one of the multi domain accounts you may want to create a directory and upload your files to that. You will also need to point the domain to the directory.

    I have GoDaddy and was a bit confused at first -- I think Colbyt's instructions are top notch. If you have any other questions, let us know and good luck with it!
