Well if it was me and I was using each of the various subdirectories,
then YES DEFINITELY, I would create each of those as separate
websites on my computer.

On my site http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gearyfamily/

there are three separate sites all under the genealogy sub directory

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gearyfamily/frontpage/

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gearyfamily/expression-web/

Each of them has a totally different look. On my computer they are
all part of the freepages website on my computer.

If I was using each of the different communities available then each
would be a totally separate web on my computer.

The examples I gave you as how Judy was using the communities is as
good an example as I can find. Each appears to be about the subject
of the community

Her site on Washington County churches under religion and the one on
schools under school_alumni

I do not use any of the other communities at the present time.
