What You’ll Need
In this article, we’re going to give you everything you’ll need to complete this whole process. We’ll give you the code for the page, and all you need to do is copy the HTML code, paste it, and upload the file to your server using your favorite file management method.

.htmlextension (under_construction.html is fine) - Copy this HTML code

Rename or Redirect?
You can do this the easy way or the hard way…
The Easy Way
When someone visits your domain, any file named index.html or index.htm will take precedent. If you don’t have any files on your site right now, you may as well go ahead and rename your “Under Construction” file to index.html. This way, it will display on your domain right away.
The Hard Way
However, if you have other files on your site you don’t want to tamper with, you can set up a redirect to the “Under Construction” file by adding some code to your .htaccess file.
That’s All You Need to Do
Now, you have a fully functional, beautiful “Under Construction” page you can always use if you need to make modifications to your site.
Be sure to let us know if you have any problems or difficulties getting this done.
