This is a graphic representation of one way that a simple site's folders and files might be structured.

• There are no definitive rules, however, it is often advisable to reflect the site's navigation in the folder structure.
• The site root directory is simply the folder that all of your site's files are kept in, and the directory that you would put your files in on the server.
• Traditionally, images are kept in an images folder, however there can be several images folders, each within other folders.
• The home page is usually named index.htm (or .html) but sometimes default.htm.
