How do I control the default webpage for my domain and/or subdomain(s)?

A. All you need to do is create an empty text file called .htaccess in the folder containing your desired default webpage. Then, your have to add the following line to the .htaccess file: DirectoryIndex something.xyz where something.xyz is the filename of your desired default webpage. This will be the webpage that loads up by default when someone accesses that folder with their web browser. Each folder (including the /public_html folder) can have its own .htaccess file. Since each subdomain has its own folder, this means that the default webpage for your domain and each of your subdomains can be easily specified.
