4. In the Location text box, type the path where you want to store the file and any supporting files. Alternatively, click the folder icon to navigate to the folder location.

5. Select the Flatten Files check box.

6. If you want to compress the HTML markup, select the Minify check box.

7. Click Publish. Google Web Designer creates the folder you specified in step 3 in the location you specified in step 4.

8. Transfer the files from the location you specified on the local computer to your hosting.com account's public_html directory. You can use the cPanel File Manager to do this, but if there is a large number of files to upload, a dedicated FTP client is much more convenient.
