You can create any files and directories in your /www/ directory. If you want to provide a web site just under your domain name, e.g. http://testing.me.uk/ then there are some restrictions on directories you can use - you cannot use bin, etc., lib, tmp, or usr. These are also unavailable as sub domains (e.g. you cannot have http://bin.testing.me.uk/. See below for redirection if you want http://testing.me.uk/ to redirect to http://www.testing.me.uk/
These restrictions are because the system creates a fake root environment for your scripts to use. This is set up automatically the first time you use ftp to access the site
You can create your own customised error pages if you wish. Simply create a page that is the error number followed by .html, e.g. 404.html will be the page not found error page. This applies to any requests in the same or lower directories unless a lower directory also has a 404.html.
==HTTPS Redirect==
You can create a file called 'https' in your web space. That page, and any subdomains of it, should then automatically redirect to HTTPS. Note that the Let's Encrypt certificate may not yet be correct if the domain has very recently been added to the system, but this should fix itself within a few hours.
