Troubleshooting - holding page still visible after uploading site

If you have uploaded your website to the server but are still seeing the BigNames holding page, the most likely reason is that your files have been uploaded outside of the public_html folder. Transferring the files to the correct folder should solve the issue.

You should also check to make sure that your index page has been named properly. If it has been named anything other than index.html, our holding page will take priority and show as default. Renaming the index file should solve the issue.

Another possible reason is that your web browser is showing a cached copy of the site. Refreshing the page (Ctrl+F5) should solve the issue.
