    I'm launching my new website i.e. financeinterface.com with wordpress, and this is my first experience as i never installed wordpress before. Problem is; I uploaded simple home page few weeks back. Now I've installed the WP but I'm confused how to remove the old home page. The first post I created can be seen here: financeinterface.com/finance%20updates

    I'm using web hosting services of hostgator. Can any body help me in this regard.

    Thanks.

    Either through your cpanel (File Manager) or with an FTP program.

    ftp.yourdomain.com - enter your password for the domain - and to be safe just rename the file index.html to old.html or whatever.
