Are you using an FTP client program like FileZilla or WS_FTP? If not, you should install one on your PC, and use it. Much better than the cPanel upload.

I use the old free version of WS_FTP, which you can still get here (http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=wsftp) (the last one listed, version 6).

Once you've installed it, create a new profile called Bluehost. The Host Name is www.yourdomain.com (use your real domain name, of course), the User ID is your BH user ID (usually, the first 8 letters of your domain name), and the Password is your BH password.

Before connecting, go to the Startup tab. In the Initial Remote Site Folder window, enter public_html. The only other thing you should do is set the Time Offset. You have to tell WS_FTP how many time zones are between you and BH. BH is in the Mountain time zone, and I'm in the Eastern time zone, two hours ahead, so I enter 2.

Now click OK, and you'll be connected. On the left side, navigate to the files you want to upload from your C: drive, and choose them (click, shift-click for groups of files and folders, etc.). On the right side, you can see what's already in the public_html directory. Now click the right-pointing arrow, and the upload will proceed.

which part you failed?
got connected to the ftp server??
or failed to send the file up.

erm... if the connected through new domain failed. this mean its not propagate yet. you can connect by IP/~youraccount. Else you can use the cpanel ftp manager.
