If you have a MobileMe account, it is easy to create and manage multiple websites. You can create your websites with a website creation program or an HTML program.

The easiest way to manage multiple websites with MobileMe is to create individual website folders and manually place them on your iDisk, especially if you keep your iDisk mounted on your Desktop at all times (see my tip, "Keep Your iDisk on the Desktop").

1.  Create a new folder and give the folder a descriptive but short name.

2.  Create the main page for your new website using a web creation or HTML program (see my article Web Design with Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.4 for suggestions).

3.  Save the main page for the website in the new folder you created. Be sure and name the page "index.html".

4.  Create as many other web pages as necessary for your website and save all the pages in the folder you created in Step 1.

5.  Copy the folder with all the web pages to the "Sites" folder on your iDisk.

6.  Create additional websites by following Steps 1-5. Give each folder a unique name but make certain that the main page in each folder is named "index.html".

Here is an example of how my Sites folder looks:

7.  Create an "index.html" page for the top level of your iDisk's Sites folder. Use this page to link to your individual websites. Copy your new "index.html" page to the Sites folder on your iDisk. When you create additional websites for your MobileMe account, you can add links to the sites to this index page.

8.  Connect to the Internet. Sync your Desktop iDisk with your virtual iDisk by clicking the small circle symbol next to the Desktop iDisk in the Sidebar.

Now that you have multiple websites on MobileMe and an index page for all the sites, you can send links to the sites to your friends and relatives. The link to all the sites will be:

http://homepage.mac.com/[username]/index.html

and the links to individual sites will be:

http://homepage.mac.com/[username]/[foldername1]
http://homepage.mac.com/[username]/[foldername2]
