multiple domains

[silver fox]

I was wondering if I sign up with hostmonster with my domain, and then I want to register another domain for a family member to the same account will their website still be www.secondsite.com and www.secondsite.com/contactus.html or will it switch to www.firstsite.com/secondsite and www.firstsite.com/secondsite/contactus.html when it is addedon? Or is there a way to not make it a addon site and have it be able to be edited and displayed as a seperate site just like the first site?

Thank you for your help.

It will be displayed as it's own domain, www.secondsite.com.

I'm another newbie with a follow-up question ...

In order to make sure the 2nd website opens with its own URL and is not re-directed to the 1st website, what should the file name of 2nd website be in the public_html folder?

Generally, when you set up a 2nd domain or 3rd domain etc, you are required to specify a subdirectory. This means that you put the files for the 2nd domain in a subfolder of public_html such as "/public_html/secondsite/" so there are no clashes between your first site files and second site files. Hope this helps! :)
