For your new local site on your PC use File New Web/Site
and for the location select (type in_) a new top level disc based location
- say: C:\Clicks4Kids
- create your site content and use File Publish Web/Site to http://www.clicks-4-kids.com

| OK I have two sites. domains are www.all-american-
| productions.com
| this one is live and I am actively developing it;
| new domain, also hosted and but not published is
| www.clicks-4-kids.com
| so, when I want to update www.all-american-
| productions.com, I just open that in FrontPage, add or
| modify whatever, and publish web; simple. But now I want
| to creat and publish www.clicks-4-kids.com
| do I just click on "creat a new web" or what? I want the
| files for the two separatge domains/sites separate, but
| when I tried to do that, it turned out that my second
| site, clicks-4-kids was not publishing properly, because
| the index file was not on the root directory, (I think
| because I created a new folder) So I have deleated
| everything and I'm starting over.. I need to keep the
| files separate in FrontPage, but on the right directory
| so they publish properly
