The root directory of your website holds the content that loads when visitors type your domain name in a browser. For example, you need to put your index file in your website's root directory for visitors to see your site. Website-related applications might also need to know your website's root directory.
For your primary domain name, your website's root directory is /public_html.
For addon domain and subdomain names, follow these steps to find the root directory:
- Go to your MaticHosting product page.
- Select the Linux Hosting account you want to use, click View Details.
- In the account Dashboard, click cPanel Admin.
- In the cPanel Home page, in the Domains section, click either Subdomains or Addon Domains.
- In the Modify Addon Domain or Modify a Subdomain section, the root directory appears below Document Root.
