Q: What are the default documents for my web site?

When a user enters your web site's domain name (or address) into their browser without specifying a specific file or document, the web server will attempt to locate one of several "default" documents in your web site's root folder to display.

The default documents (in order) are listed below :

  • default.htm
  • default.asp
  • default.aspx
  • default.php
  • index.htm
  • index.asp
  • index.aspx
  • index.php

For example, if a user enters the following address into their web browser's address bar :

http://www.W2Kx-Web.com

The web server will first try to locate a file called default.htm and display it. If it doesn't exist, the web server will try to locate default.asp , and so on.

If none of the files listed above exists in the root folder of your web site, it will return a W2Kx-Web.com templated parked page or a 404 - File Not Found Error Page.

You can customize your error pages through the control panel.
