Hi there. I have just registered my domain name (on namecheap.com) as well as my web server (at webhostingforstudends.com). I downloaded Cyberduck and uploaded all the files as per the video.
For some reason when I enter my domain name I still get a green Webhostingforstudents screen saying "Welcome to your new site! Web hosting for students" as well as "This is a default landing page. Please FTP into your account to upload your own files."
Am I jumping the gun here? Should I wait 24 hours? Or am I doing something wrong?

20,444 PointsI haven't looked much into Web Hosting For Students (although I believe its a Treehouse Perk) Have you ensured that you set your nameservers on your domain you got at Namecheap to Web Hosting For Students' ones? If so, it may take about 24 hours for DNS to propagate, allowing everything to point properly and show up.
