Hi,
I tried uploading an HTML file. But I still couldn't figure it out. Whenever I try to access it by https:/HomepageURL/file.html, I get a 404 error. Can someone please help me?

Re: Uploading an HTML file that could be accessed by website visitors
It needs to be in the web root on the server. The exact location varies between hosting providers, but is often named www or public_html. Other hosters simply use the root directory.
Important: Use all lowercase for the name, web servers do make a difference.
Proposal: Name your HTML file index.html, that's the name browsers actively try to load first, without you needing to write its name.

No. The name of the index document is chosen by the server, with the server redirecting, sometimes internally, sometimes externally to the index document.Proposal: Name your HTML file index.html, that's the name browsers actively try to load first, without you needing to write its name.
