Whilst Umbraco does support multi-site installations I would personally only do that for related sites e.g. Multiple language versions of a site. My reasons for this are in part to lower the risk of creating issues on multiple unrelated sites by any actions/updates for one of the sites in the install. Also consider future upgrades, you can't do each site independently it's all or nothing!
I would say create a new database for each of your websites that you are working with. You can use the SQLCE database or MS SQL server Express or MS SQL Server.
Umbraco Database
Hi,
I created a MSSQL Database for Umbraco. Do I need a new database for every website? Or can I use the same database for every project?
Umbraco supports multi site with different host names in same installation.

This of course is just my opinion :)
No sorry, I don't need multisite. I'm learning Umbraco and I'm creating different site on my pc.
Can I use the same database for all my "learning" sites?
I don't know what Umbraco store in database, if only user account or Datatape and other options?
