Godaddy is go-screwing me, please help!?
Posted on Nov 23, 2009 under GoDaddy.com |I uploaded my simple website via dreamweaver, it says it connected fine. It is not showing up on the web however, although my files do show up when i log into my godaddy account, what am I doing wrong? How can I get my web page to show up online?

It takes time for websites to show up. One of my sites was available in New York before I could see it on my own computer. I would give it up to 3 days and if it still isn’t showing up call GoDaddy’s support. Oh and lol @ go-screwing.

Are you sure you loaded them into the correct directory?

GoDaddy’s servers are very overloaded (those unbelievably low prices are quite believable once you see the server loads), and can often take quite some time for your pages to reflect changes made in the website’s structure.
I would suggest switching to a less burdened host. Click the link in my sources for more information. We’d be glad to assist you via Live Chat in getting your website on a reliable host

Any change in your webpages on any server should be reflected INSTANTLY (except for javascripts that need to be re.loaded on the user’s machine).
If it does not, then your server and/or your host is is a piece of junk.
For what I have heard about godaddy, I think it is the case!
You’ll be better moving to a small hositng service, with a more "personal" service, even if it means paying a little bit more…
The quality of the personal service is really proportional to the price you pay…
I use a small host, with less than 1000 users, and I have a fantastic service, and 99.5% on-line, for less than 80$/year per site. Good enough for me!

Well, dreamweaver is not a pure FTP software. I have faced same problem when I used to use Dreamwever to upload my university assignments.
But in commercial environment, when you have to perform massive upload, use Filezilla FTP software. It has very useful features, it is fast and reliable as well.
Simply, enter your godaddy FTP username and password in Filezilla interface and you are way to go! I have been using and recommending Godaddy from the last one year, never had trouble like that.
Please go here to download and try it out.
