Test my website

[chako.org]

Ok, so we have all of our files, we think, uploaded to BLUEHOST. Before we have the link for our URL transferred over from our current HOST, how do we test our website? We want to make sure everything renders ok for our potential customers.

Thanks! - Eric -

For cPanel based hosting like Bluehost, you can use the temporary URL in the format http://ipaddress/~username (get ipaddress from your welcome mail), unless specifically disabled. Try it.

Yup got that one right. You can try to check it using the temporary URL that shows the current state and form of your site.

The links may not work instantly though cause it's just a temporary link.
