Page URL

This may seem like a stupid question but I need an answer. I have made a site with Kompozer and had no problem getting the main page to work. Then I made another page and uploaded it to the cpanel and I have no idea what the url is for it. How does that get set? Do I need to do anything to make it online or should it automatically come up. Most of the sites I have done have been with wordpress so I am not as adept at making them this way. I spose the other option would be to make it through wordpress instead.

What I plan on doing is making some replica pages for people to use with their affiliate link on basically a carbon copy page. This way the site gets more visits from the others sending the traffic there and should rank better. All I need to do is change a link on the page which I can copy in cpanel and change code there. But then I need to know how the url name is set. Just that one bit is holding me back. Probably a simple solution but I have not been able to find an answer through searching.

  • Let's say you have the following setup:

    Your site's url: http://www.yoursite.com/

    Page's name: page.html

    The page will be located at: http://www.yoursite.com/page.html

    If you uploaded it to the root folder (where the home page is).

    • Ok, well I didn't originally upload it to the root folder but I tried moving it and it still didn't come up. Maybe it needed time to propogate or should it be ready straight away?

      So if I put it in a folder, lets say 'my refs' would that mean it would be http://www.yoursite.com/my%20refs/page.html
      the %20 representing a space.
      Thing is I tried that and still didnt work.
  • Ok, I found the problem, knew it would be something simple...seems the url is case sensitive...once I did the correct case it worked
