How to set up a second website using bluevoda

[santoro1]

I have successfully published my first website with the help of blue voda and many on this forum. Now I want to publish a second, separate and distinct website. I have set up the domain add on successfully. Now when I open up bluevoda, I open up a blank page and start designing the page. I am confused a bit bec I understand that the first page of the new website must be named "index" just like the first page of the initial website I made. Since there is already an "index" page saved, how do I differentiate the two? Thanks

Second question... if I want to have the visitor to my website go from page one to two to three etc and lets say I have an area that says "click here to continue" at the bottom of the page, how do I name the pages and link them so they follow from one to the next? If there is a distinct tutorial that goes over this please let me know bec I have been over most of them and don't seem to find it. Thanks again

Hi ..

First question .. create in your MYDOCUMENTS/BLUEVODA a folder by the name of your new domain .. store all relevant files and material in here .. when you save your pages (and yes, first page index) you will save them in this folder, this will prevent overwriting of your first domain ..

publish your files to public_html/addondomain.com

You should always name your pages something that is relevant .. even if you want your pages to go next, next, back, etc.

Once you give your pages a name and publish them, apply the link to that page at the bottom for each of your pages ..

For instance, if your 2nd page is called grapes .. on your first page, at the bottom, type next .. then apply the link to the grapes page to the word next ..

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

perhaps a simple question...where do I find MYDocuments/bluevoda? Is that in the blue voda program....Or is this part of the main computer itself.. start, explore and then find mydocuments? Also, I am using Vista. Isn't my documents actually "documents" in vista as compared to win xp? Sorry, got a lot of things flying around in my brain right now, and am feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Yes, find it on your computer and more than likely called documents in vista ..

You will be fine .. it will all come together for you ..

See if you can go to the same place where you have kept your files for your main domain .. make that folder there ..

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

Ok, did all you suggested and have successfully created documents/bluevoda/newdomainname I then created my first page of the new website and labeled it "index". I then published it as per your rx and blue voda let me know that it was published successfully.

When I tested it by typing in my domain name I got some crazy error message that I have never seen before. Here is the website address http://www.GenewizeMLMsecrets.com The error message is

Index of /

• .ftpquota
• cgi-bin/

Apache/2.2.8 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.8b mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at genewizemlmsecrets.com Port 80 Any ideas? Thanks

BTW, I checked with the company I purchased the domain from and it is active and working ok.

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

have you pointed the domain to your VH servers?

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

yes, the ns1.voda25.com and ns2 as directed.

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

You published the index page to public_html/GenewizeMLMsecrets.com

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

I decided to take a look at my file manager settings. I don't know what all this means but maybe it makes a difference. I had forgotten that I had set up the genewizemlmsecrets.com folder once before, so there are two of them in the public_html folder.

First under the public_html folder it has the folder cgi-bin- in this folder there is nothing listed

Second - in the genewizemlmsecrets.com folder there is a cgi-bin folder in it with no records in the cgi-bin folder as well

Third in the GeneWizeMLMSecrets.com folder there is the following

index.html

I don't want to simply start deleting things since I don't know what i am doing but perhaps this info will help you help me get this straightened out. Thanks for your help.

My main domain www.Dralfredsantoro.com is working and is under the etc folder higher up in the directory tree for home/fcjeffi

Publish to the all lower case genewisemlmsecrets.com directory and see what happens. It will do no harm.

You main site should be published to the public_html file. You say that it is published to a etc. folder ????

You are not using your Dr website to it's best capability. The page title should use keywords in describing the content of the page.
"Index" will not help anyone find your site through a search.

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

I just got back from 4th of July fireworks on the beach. It was awesome. I will try to publish to the lower case file and see what happens. Regarding my dr site, I was just following directions in naming the intro page index. any rx are appreciated.

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

Hi Terry was explaining a bit about page "title" - not to be confused with the name of your page - the title is found in page properties instead ..
(you still need to name your page index when you publish)

Glad the fireworks were great, I watched ours on Canada Day and they were great too .. the best I've seen in awhile .. lots of glitter .. lol

Re: How to set up a second website using bluevoda

Right LadyEye,
Name = index
Title= A descriptive phrase explaining the page content using keywords
