After asking how to make the URL field of the browser change between different pages on your site here, I understood that to make this happen, I had to switch from using Dropbox as my host to a more proper hosting provider. So, now I have an account at http://www.000webhost.com, a service which utilizes the cPanel for all the configuration needs.

What I want to do is to create a homepage with different pages, where the URL field of the browser changes whenever you navigate to a new page. However, I would it to say:

“www.myhomepage.com/about/” or “www.myhomepage.com/about”

“www.myhomepage.com/contact/” or “www.myhomepage.com/contact”

rather than

“www.myhomepage.com/about.html”

“www.myhomepage.com/contact.html”

    If you’re using flat HTML pages, just create those folders /about, /contact, etc. and then place index.html inside. That’ll be served up by default when you visit a URL like www.myhomepage.com/about.

    Fancier setups use a content management system (WordPress, ExpressionEngine, Drupal, etc.) and URL masking to achieve the same effect in a different way.
