Note:&nbsp;The steps herein are for Linux hosting.

When uploading your website files, you might be confused about which folder you should put them in on your hosting server.

Whether you’re&nbsp;<a href="https://vodien.com/help/article/how-to-upload-files-and-folders-via-ftp/" target="_blank">uploading your files using an FTP client</a>&nbsp;(Filezilla,&nbsp;CuteFTP,&nbsp;Cyberduck, etc.) or<a href="https://vodien.com/help/article/how-to-upload-files-via-file-manager/" target="_blank">&nbsp;through your Hosting Manager</a>, make sure you’re putting your website files in the correct folder.

<ul>
	<li>Upload the website files for the&nbsp;primary domain&nbsp;inside the&nbsp;public_html&nbsp;folder.</li>
	<li>If you’re uploading files for a&nbsp;<a href="https://vodien.com/help/article/create-subdomain-name/" target="_blank">subdomain&nbsp;</a>or<a href="https://vodien.com/help/article/parked-domains-addon-domain/" target="_blank">&nbsp;addon domain</a>, put them in its specific folder inside the public_html folder. For example, if you’ve added&nbsp;newdomain.com&nbsp;as an add-on domain in your hosting account, cPanel will automatically create a subfolder for it inside the public_html folder. Make sure to upload your files there.</li>
