..but, I am stuck—ignorant enough to get in trouble easily. I had hosting with a big name that attracts newbies. Since I only really need a single page for two URLs, I found Bluehost really cheap and easy. I got one migrated over, but am stuck with the second. I do not need another hosting account for a single page with no external links. It is for a business I closed in 2019 but I want to keep the URL active ..'planecover.com'.

I use Transmit (Mac user since the 1980s) to upload images, etc. I also use my site to store images for eBay. I can do that basic stuff. BUT - I cannot figure out how to hang the second URL? Is it a sub-domain? Sorry, I really don't know the terms.

Is there a simple process you can suggest? I appreciate the help.

Cheers. Jim

Not sure I follow.

You have planecover.com and the you want a subdomain off the same domain, like sub.planecover.com? That's something you set up with your host's control panel. You need to create a subdomain and point it to a folder. The latter may be done automatically for you. I think a typical setup is that all domain and subdomain folders are inside the root folder and each have their own set of default folders, like public_html and so on.

But go to the CP and look for subdomains. It will probably lead you through it.

About the main site not showing up - I assume this is a problem too? My guess is that your previous host used the web root folder www instead of public_html - or it could be the other way around too, of course. In which of them do you have your index.html now? Try moving or copying it to the other.
