how to build a hierarchical site at best?

I would like to have three sections and the welcome page would direct you to the sections (profession, politics, and free time).
But, while a do not need to use a different design (though it would be nice), i at least need to use a different logo on those three sections. And also Header and Footer

I could not find a way to do that
Do I need to build 3 different sites?

Thanks for ideas

Make your three separate sites (profession, politics, free time) using any template you wish for each of them«they can all be different if you wish. Then make a fourth site, which is your "gateway" or "welcome" site, in which you have links to the three others. For an example, see http://davidneale.eu where several of the links are to other Sandvox created sites (Photos, Elvis Presley, Royal DOulton…).

Re: how to build a hierarchical site at best?

As Macdafydd says build separate sites that you put put into sub directories. My site is for my students at school and since there are many projects, none of them on the same theme, I needed different templates for each theme. I made different sites for each project and linked them using the external link page (the icon looks like an ampersand on a spring). The result is seamless and you wouldn’t know that there are different sites (http://pages.csdgs.net/~u119713267/).

Here is an explanation that I wrote before on the forum explaining how to do it: http://karelia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=423
