Preparing to move to iCloud and GoDaddy for my sites etc.

[Soundhound]

I read a Macrumors post (included below) which I think is from someone at Godaddy, regarding what I seems like a good idea - making backups for my currently MobileMe hosted sites as I get ready to move to GoDaddy, and also as I get ready to switch over to iCloud. I know that MobileMe will continue to host the sites until June, but I'm wanting to move to iCloud fairly soon.

Does anyone know if doing this will just be making a copy of the materials in the sites? I won't be removing the original materials from the MobileMe hosted site, right?

Just wanted to be sure.

Here's the post I'm referring to. Thanks!:

Josh,

Our understanding is that Apple will allow current sites to continue running through June 30, 2012. To ensure you have a copy of your site, we recommend opening iWeb and choosing 'Publish to a Folder' which will produce a hostable copy of all the data you need and store it in a single folder for access later. That way you'll have the data easily accessible should you ever need to put it somewhere else. Your Go Daddy domain will be active for as long as you registered it (and as long as you keep it renewed), and you can point it to any hosting provider you choose if it becomes necessary for you to move. We're always available to help if you need us: http://x.co/gdsupport

Yes, all that does is give you a copy in a folder on your computer. It won't touch the copy on your iDisk.
