My site,www.marathonchronicles.com, was trashed last week. I have been trying to reload it, but now it comes up as a directory, not a web site. What am I doing wrong?

Hello richards312, and thanks for your question. I took a look at your account, and it just looked like you had your files uploaded into what is called the home or root directory. This is where you might have password files stored, and it's also where email and logs are kept. You actually want to place any website files, into your account's document root directory which is named /public_html/. I have gone ahead and moved these in place for you, but you might want to double-check that I grabbed everything. You might also want to know about where to upload and place files for addon domains or subdomains, what file will load first on your websites, and how you can change the default page or directory index. Hope that helped, let us know if you have any other questions at all! - Jacob
