I need somebody to tell me how to update my website with the changes made to the URL code for it. Do I upload just the updated URL code for the webpage that has the form for customers to complete and submit to me? Do I need to delete the original webpage?
I’m not sure what to tell you. A web hosting account is a blank canvas, you can paint it the way you want to. For the most part, there is no right or wrong place to put code.
Some ways are arguably better than other ways in specific situations. But we don’t know anything about your site, so we couldn’t possibly tell you what would be the “right” way for your site.
The contact form is already in my webpage. I just need to make two changes. I need to change “Name” to “Full Name” because some people had been putting only their first name on the form. And I need to change my mobile phone number from “912-266-9489” to "912-979-9023. Here’s URL to my webpage: https://privatemoneyforus.com
P.S. I’ve uploaded a copy of the URL code for my webpage that has the changes I indicated.

You’ll want to upload the latest version of this HTML page to your account through FTP and have it overwrite the original. You may need to clear your browser’s cache to see the changes, but the new version of the page will go live right away.
When I logged into my InfinityFree account, I went to File Manager. I then went to the htdocs folder which held all my files for my webpage, and uploaded the file containing the updated URL code to my webpage, and had it overwrite the previous file. Using the FileZilla app, I then transfered the file containing the updated URL code to the /privatemoneyforus.com/htdocs folder.
But I’m still getting the changes I need on my webpage. Maybe I did this wrong. Please tell me how I can correct it. Here are the steps I took:
If you’re making a website with Microsoft Word, then every time you want to update your web page, you need to export your page as a HTML file from Word, and upload that generated HTML file.
Please understand that Microsoft Word is a document editor. It’s not website building software, and .docx are not website files. Hosting servers don’t understand .docx files, and there is little reason to have that .docx file on your hosting account.
by the specified year, it can be seen that you did not upload new version of index.html file
do this with drag and drop from one window to another
or right-click on that index.html file while using monstaFTP (file manager)
and choose edit
and then edit and make the changes you want and save
And next time, if you take a screenshot, make sure that the address bar of MonstaFTP is not visible, because if someone sees the entire URL listed there, they have full access to your FTP
