Default Upload website to a subfolder of Root

Hi,

I am about to upload my very first ASP.NET application. I understand that I have to upload it to the /WWWROOT folder, but I think that it makes much more sense to use a subfolder, like: /WWWROOT/mydomain. That will make it much easier host additional domains in the future.

Am I correct? Do I have to change any setting on the Control Panel for my application to show?

Thank you very much in advance,

- Manuel

Hi Manuel,

No, if you upload it to /wwwroot/something/ then it will appear on your site at http://your-site.com/something/

There's no way for you to change the "web root" folder, so you should publish your site to /wwwroot/ only if you want it at http://your-site.com/
