You might use Directory Privacy if, for instance, you want to create a special area of your site for your family. This area might contain family photos or other information that you want only your family to see. You can use Directory Privacy to create one or more user accounts for your family (each account includes a username and password). After you create these accounts, place your photos and web pages in a single folder, or subdirectory, of your site and create a subdomain (such as family.your-site-here.net) of your site and limit access to only those with the username and password you assign. Learn more about directory privacy.
