Default Cannot view my site

I think that i have screwed up horribly and i do not know why.
I am trying to upload a website (designed in Kompozer) to my account on hostgator using Smart FTP.
This is where my problems begin.
I thought that i had followed all of the upload instructions correctly but when i type in the website address i get the following on the page.

Index of /
.ftpquota
1076164_portrait.jpg
1083978_misska.jpg
About Me.html
Article 1.html
Article 2.html
Article 3.html
Privacy Policy.html
Resources.html
cgi-bin/
guygetsgirl.html
index.html.html
Apache/2.2.10 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.10 OpenSSL/0.9.8i DAV/2 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at seductionmethods.net Port 80

As you can see not the result that i had expected.
Yes this is my first time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Regards

Kim

Kim,

You need to alter the name of the file index.html.html to index.html and this should resolve the problem.

I remember the very first site I ever designed had the index page written as INDEX.html... after hours of wondering why I couldn't publish it I changed it to index.html (lowercase) and then it worked
