    i'm willing to bet the problem is with your hosting provider.. godaddy is the worst hosting provider I have ever seen

    I've actually never experienced any problems with godaddy other than their hosting being a bit slow..

    but yeah, did you upload any "index.*" files? like index.html, index.php? The server is generally set to display the index.* file first. If it can't find it, it'll then display a "coming soon" thing (depending on the server).

    sometimes dreamweaver is not the best way to upload try to just drag and drop the files in...

    I do agree with you

    There is a fact to keep in mind, is the OP hosted on paid plan?

    Free hosting attached to your domain does not grant you FTP acccess.

    However the coming soon page makes me believe you got a "website tonight" or similar plan with no FTP access either but needing to press "publish" within your file manager in order to get rid of the temporary page.
