Hi folks. 

 I have a domaibn name i bought from Go Daddy. wanted to make a simple page with a little content to place ad units from AdSense on. So I get caught up in this whimsical (and what sounded to be VERY simple) idea to make a website centered around the domain name. I was told to get Joomla, and use a Joomla script for the template, blah blah so on and so on. Here I sit, 6 hours later, 2 on the phone with Godaddy, several in forums trying to figure out how to get this template into my go daddy hosted domain. Well guess what? it's only good up to v 1.5, joomla is at 1.6.3. Totally wasted my night. Here is all i want to do for the time being

  • I have a domain name
  • I paid go daddy to host it for 2 months a few hours ago
  • I want to have a page i can add a pretty little header image to, add a little content, and place adsense ad units on. that's IT!

Can someone PUHHLEASE tell me how to do this in a simple way? Pretty much, I want a parked domain with MY adsense units running on it, not Go Daddy's.

Hi Dave ,

Are you trying to make a page and put HTML in it using your GoDaddy account?

 

If yes , then make a simple HTML document using your FTP of your godaddy account and then put the Google Adsense code into it. i guess your Godaddy account has FTP (File Transfer Portal) which looks like a File icon inside your Domain Control Panel.

1. Go into your FTP .

2. Go into Public_html

3. There should be a "new file" icon in the control panel > Click it > and name it anyname.html

4. Then refresh , you should see it now , Right click it and EDIT CODE.

5. Place your adsense code into it and wrap the code with <center>ADSENSE CODE</center>

 

That should be it , your file should be in http://yourdomain.com/anyname.html .

 

If i am wrong , do explain more clearly what you want , i will help you out.

 

Have a nice day ,

Elson.

Elson,

 Thank you for the reply. Here is what i see. Which do i open?

I just uninstalled Joomla from there, i dont kn ow if templates is even  supposed to be there.

 

Just go to [Root] then in there create a new HTML document by clicking "NEW" on the bar where you can see Copy , Move etc.

 

Then follow the steps i stated.

 

 

ok i ticked root and clicked new....completely blank page. I'm no coder by any means, I can read it and kinda tell people what it does, but write it? not at all. I could have sworn through all of the confusion I saw somewhere that was basically a dummies dashboard. With layouts, modules to move around, add background image, nice cute header........basically a visual simple idiot guide, not a blank page....it does not have to be complicated, just want to do a header image, a place to put 728x90 adsense banner under that, a module under it for some textual content, a module to place an adsense 300x250 unit in the middle, and a place to put a 160x600 tower adsense unit on the right or left....thats all i want to do right now. Do I need all of that coded from scratch?

for whatever reason, the welcome.html is what it shows. i created a couponcloud.html but when i go to the site (http://extremecouponcloud.com) it shows what is in the welcome.html on the page. Should I delete the welcome.html? will it default to the one I made (couponcloud.html)?

please forgive my noobness. I have already wasted so much time on this, i thought i could do this in about an hour, and it's been 8 (mainly due to the Joomla recommendation)

Sorry for the late reply, 
I can help you to make a page to your specifications, please give me some time, I will send to your inbox on jensocial once I'm finish.
