When attempting to view my website in a browser, this is the screen the user sees:

< link href="css/landing-page.css" rel="stylesheet">
Our new website is under construction. For inquires, please send a message to the email address below.

when seeking help it might also help to provide a link to the website/page you are having issues with. just saying.

from what you typed im guessing they see the page you list as index.php
and possibly you have a space in your code which breaks it.
< link href="css/landing-page.css" rel="stylesheet"> where it should be
<link href="css/landing-page.css" rel="stylesheet"/> or something like that.

i dont use that style sheet but proper coding always helps.

I did not type that link. That after attempting to publish a SiteBuilder webpage.

So, Do I have to figure out where it should go and edit this thing?
Keep in mind that the publish function on SiteBuilder does not work. It terminates with a FTP error.

when i visit http://faith-everlastinglife.com/
i see the same reference you mention.

if you use site builder to construct/build your site, there is a problem.
seems it is not adding the links properly to your stylesheet.
and is only showing the html of the main page, including the link.
in otherwords your website is broken and wont display as intended.

you are not supposed to have spaces between the < and >
also in most cases as i mentioned the code should end with /> not just >
so it would look like <link href="css/landing-page.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

that would also assume you have a 'css' folder in public_html.
and in that folder you have a file called 'landing-page.css'

It's not even supposed to display that landing page. It was working fine up until about a month ago.
I use SiteBuilder. When I try to publish, I get a server error (have been for about a month).
I am about ready to reset everything and start over. Problem is that I don't know how.
I have not coded in almost 20 years.

So... Any helpful suggestions for starting over?

x10hosting has been having problems with a lot of the services/features.
unfortunately the site builder is just 1 of them people had issues with.
and i have no idea how long it will be before they get to fixing anything.
(normal forum members have no control over any of that stuff)

id suggest looking up html tutorials if your not familiar with html coding.
because everyone has their own different ways to learn/use html.

a good place to start is https://www.w3schools.com/html/
You can also use google to search any other tutorials.

also id suggest looking for a different sitebuilder script/program.
you can find good, free alternatives using google.
some are easy to use some can be complicated as well.
