    Yes it is. This makes sense when you are developing or otherwise working on your website personally. It makes little sense if you are hosting the website for the world to view.

    I would suggest that you download and install one of the many bundled configurations of Apache+PHP+mySQL, such as LAMP, MAMP, WAMP or AMPPS
    Then use the “VirtualHost” method to work under your domain name rather than some variation of “localhost”.

    I have a Mac so I use MAMP. In this case, where would I copy the public_html directory to?
