Uploading my site to the web issues

Hello I wasn't sure what category to put this under. I am trying to upload my website using hostgator but I am having problems. Right now I am uploading the files to the public_html in hostgator but when I return to my site all that happens is all the file names are stacked on top of each other in an unordered list. What am I missing to upload all the files? I have checked several youtube videos and other tutorials but they all say the same thing which is the way I have been doing it but having no luck. This is my site www.tvisionfitness.com so you can see what I mean about just the file names showing up. Thanks in advance

You need to upload your index.html page. That is the first file web browsers will look for.

Thanks I didn't realize that. I just changed the home page to index and it worked. Thanks for your help.
