On which folder should I upload all my website page files?
there are lots of folders like www, public_html, public_ftp, etc, which one?

You upload it in your public_html. The www folder is just a shortcut that goes to the public_html. If you need any other assistance feel free to PM me.

Should you wish to add it under a sub folder, meaning http://yourname.trap17.com/forum with forum being your sub folder, simply create a new folder and drop it under public html, with all your webpage files to go under that specific folder. Your main page has to be index, it doesn't matter what kind of technology or what extension it is, it can php, asp, html, jsp ... etc

dear fr0z3n You must upload your site in public_html folder
