To change your GDI account(domain) into basic hosting:-
Log-in to your account-click "domain"-click "change DNS"-click "basic hosting"-click "continue".....Then GDI will send you an email about your activated hosting.

To upload files in the activated hosting:-
Open an ftp software(filezilla works well....download it free if you don't have it)-connect to GDI server by filling the necessary info:-
host=ftp.hosting.ws     username=yourGDIusername   password=yourGDIpassword   port=21
Lt side of the software you will see files from your hard drive
Rt side of the software you will see your GDI domain directories
Right click at files you want to upload in your hard drive-select upload.....you will see files being uploaded.
*Make sure your home page is named one of the three below
index.html
index.htm
index.php

Cheers!

I got  my domain name through GDI and am using GDI for hosting and I wish to build my website based on templates provided for me through another source. How do I get the website I end up building to be the domain name and website that all will see when going to my website on the internet?
Thank you for the assistance.

Hi,
When you upload files you have to make sure that your home page(the page you want to appear first) should be named either
index.html
index.htm
index.php
Then when you type your domain in an internet explorer you will see the website you uploaded
