The Following is a description of how three people use Multisite for iWeb. From these descriptions you can see some of the ways Multisite for iWeb could be a fit for you. If you find new uses for it we would like to hear from you about it.
Kirk has started his own business. He found that it was easy to build and maintain a small site for it after getting iWeb as part of the iLife bundle. He publishes his site to a folder and then copies it up to a web server for the business.
Recently he wanted to start a related blog and host it on a separate website. In Multisite for iWeb he chose the “Create Site” option and created a new “Untitled Site.” Then double clicked on the name and named the site “Kirk’s Blog.” Finally set it as the current site and launched iWeb to make his blog entry. When he’s done he publishes to a folder and then copies it to a separate web service to host the blog.
Jim’s a student who likes model rockets. He developed the club’s website with iWeb and publishes it to his .Mac account. Even though he only has a single website he uses Multisite for iWeb since he likes that it stores all of the website data in his home Documents folder in the file titled “Multisite for iWeb Data.mfi.” This makes it very easy for him to back it up.
Jackie does a lot of work on websites. When she’s not developing a complete site for a business client she uses iWeb to maintain several sites. She has one site for her family, which she publishes to her .Mac account. Another site is for the School PTA site that goes to its own web server as well as another site for her home based business that also gets published to a folder and then moved on to its own web server.
With Multisite for iWeb she can quickly change between the current site she’s working on with iWeb and it also makes for easy backups.
