I'm getting ready to develop content that I want to serve up in subdomain URLs. What is the best way to develop those. I want them to be stand alone apps with their own DB and config files. I notice that .NET will not allow an application to live in a subfolder of my Main project. It will try to compile it as part of the project.

So, should I develop completely separate projects in their own solution, or will it be ok to have multiple web apps in the same solution. I also notice that in development, creating a link to a default.aspx in a separate project folder doesn't work.

At the end of the day I want www.ekleeman.com , wiki.ekleeman.com , test.ekleeman.com, etc...
