installing my own Chrome extension

I have created a Chrome Extension. I had it successfully installed but then I uninstalled it. Now I want to re-install it. The directions say to simply drag the extension and drop it on the Chrome Extensions page. I dragged and dropped the .json file onto the Extensions page. I dropped it onto the button that said "Drop to Install". When I dropped the file, the contents of the .json file opened as text in the Chrome tab. It did not prompt me if I wanted to install. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Drag and drop a folder that contains all extension files. Or pack it to the .crx file and drag and drop that file.
