Creating a website folder

In this recipe, we are going to create a separate website directory for each website, for example, mysite, v2mysite, and v4mysite, inside the c:\inetpub\wwwroot path, where we can upload the website application files later in the chapter. We were using the default wwwroot folder to upload the website files, so now we have to publish more than one website. We have to upload all the web files in their own separate directory.

Getting ready

To step through this recipe, you will need a running IIS 10 instance. You must have administrator privileges, which you need to create the website folders.
