The site update utility gives you the ability to make simple or complex
changes to your page templates or refresh page content. Click the
'Updates' button to get to the site update page.
</p>
<p>
If you select 'Template Update' for the Update Type, that will upload only the
template(s). You can select to update only a single template or all
templates. You can also specify an individual hosting server to update,
or to update all of them.
</p>
<p>
An example use of the template update feature would be if you had to change your AdSense pub- ID (account ID)
in your AdSense code for the pages. This enables you to make the change
in just the page template. Then you upload the modified template file
to the appropriate template subdirectory, then trigger the
template update.
</p>
<p>
When you do a template update, the entire template subdirectory is re-uploaded to the hosting server. Then the
builder will trigger each of the web sites on that hosting server to
rebuild it's own pages. This is spread out over time to minimize the
server load on the hosting server. Typically, it will do 4 sites per
hour. 
</p>
<p>
When the sites rebuild, the same content is reused, as far as the keywords and articles.
</p>
<p>
To change the keywords and articles, you need to do a 'Content Refresh'
for the Update Type. This will re-upload the template, just like the
Template Update, and then it will get new keyword phrases and article
text, and upload that as well, to each site on the hosting server.
</p>
<p>
Then the builder will trigger each site to rebuild over time, as mentioned above.
</p>
It is important to note, that the actual site build on the hosting server
can take from a few minutes to over an hour, depending on how many
keywords were used and how fast the hosting server is.
