Step 4: Set Up Your Website Files

• Navigate to the htdocs folder (this is the root directory for your website).

   

• Upload your website files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, etc.) using the Upload button.

   

Step 5: Set Up a Database (Optional)

If your site requires a database:

• In your cPanel, go to the MySQL Databases section.

   

• Create a new database, a new MySQL user, and assign the user to the database.

   

• Update your website’s configuration files (e.g., PHP scripts) to use these database credentials.

Step 6: Set Up Your Domain (if using a custom domain)

• If you’re using a custom domain, go to the Domain Management section in your cPanel.

   

• Update the DNS settings for your domain:

   

• Set the nameservers to ns1.epizy.com and ns2.epizy.com (provided by InfinityFree).

   

• Allow time for DNS propagation (this may take up to 24 hours).

   

Step 7: Test Your Website

• Once everything is uploaded and set up, visit your domain or subdomain (e.g., yourwebsite.epizy.com).

   

• Verify that your website is live and working as expected.

   

Step 8: Manage and Monitor Your Website

• Use the cPanel to monitor your website’s performance, manage emails, databases, and other configurations.

   

• InfinityFree provides free SSL, FTP access, and other management tools from the cPanel.
