Changing home page of addon domain

[eoinmc]

Hi all,
hope life is been good to ye.
I have an addon domain http://softskillsireland.ie I've put together a new homepage titled softskillsireland.ie and published it, but when I google it I'm getting the original homepage - not the new page.
I've checked the file manager and the new page is there in the files.
Anyone know what I need to do, or if one of the tutorials have something that will help me.

Thanks for your help

Re: Changing home page of addon domain

I would double-check to see if you in fact properly created your Add-On Domain Directory and published to the correct directory ("folder") as thought.
As you know, publishing a new page version to the same directory as where previously published, the new BV page will simply over-write the old on, and will then be visible online instead.
If you are not "seeing" it yourself, most likely your browser is caching, or refusing to re-load the new version: "refresh" your browser multiple times to force the new page to load.



If you are still experiencing difficulties, here are some more clarifications that might make it easier to trace your efforts and find any errors >>>>

The differences between domain types...

Differences in Domain Types via URL Examples:
http://www.PrimaryDomain.com
http://www.AddOnDomain.com which is an actual registered domain with Nameservers set at your VodaHost account
http://SubDomain.PrimaryDomain.com which is a fully functional non-registered domain created in your cPanel as an independent site (directory) in Main Account


... how to create the proper type of domain directory ... >> (Control Panel Tutorials, v.X3)
VodaHost operates both X and X3 versions of cPanel. Customers who joined after November 1, 2007 are on X3.
Adding an additional add-on domain name to your account
Creating a sub-domain ( A sub-domain is not an add-on)


And ... how to PUBLISH ... >>
The method of publishing with Blue Voda to Add-On domains and Sub-Domains is virtually the same, by making simple changes within the Publish Dialog Box:
(Primary Account Domain) public_html/ .........<--- leave blank
(Add-On Domain) public_html/addondomain
(Sub-Domain, as shown on Primary) public_html/primarydomainname/subdomainname
Publishing your web pages on the internet


...as well as how to best link pages ... >>
* To link page-to-page in this new site - if an add-on - the linking method is exactly the same as when using your Primary domain, as it has a unique domain from which to find the hosted site:
i.e. http://www.AddOnDomain.com/next-page.html

* To link page-to-page in a subdomain, you will need to follow the same logical structure, only adding the variables as required:
i.e. http://Sub-Domain.PrimaryDomain.com/next-page-title-here.html .

Linking your pages together (Hyperlinks with text, images etc...)
