Install modules

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am a beginner debugging build_sitemap.pl on a linux web hosting server at Bluehost. My program requires three CPAN modules which I have installed without errors on my local workstation. How do I upload them to the web server? Which folders do I upload? Where do I put them? There is a Bluehost native folder called Perl one level up from my root. Do I put them there? How do I make sure that my program knows where to find them? -Brian

Bluehost uses cpanel, which has a feature for installing Perl modules. I'm not sure if the "test drive" link I'm posting here will work, but here goes: https://login.bluehost.com/frontend/bluehost/module_installers/main.html?lang=perl If that link doesn't take you to the Perl module installation page on the 'cpanel' test drive tool, then just login to your Bluehost cpanel tool yourself, and scroll down the page until you find the "Perl Modules" link.
