You can optionally enter a sub-folder name, such as "site1", and you'll see this gets added to the end of your website address in the field above. This is useful if you want to publish multiple sites to the same Hosting account – you can put each one in a different sub-folder.

Click Ok. All settings including your password will be saved to the document. Your website will then publish and you will see the data transfer window indicating the progress of the publish.
