—–Learning about WordPress Multisite Networks!—–

If you’ve been working with WordPress for a while, there’s a chance you might have more than a few sites running. If your sites have a few things in common, you might wonder: is there a more efficient way to run them than managing them as single installs?

WordPress Multisite could be what you’re looking for. It lets you create a network on your WordPress installation, meaning that you can then run as many sites as you want in that network, all on one instance of WordPress. Think of this: WordPress.com is a great example of a WordPress Multisite installation running millions of sites.

What is a WordPress Multisite Network?

WordPress Multisite is a way of adding multiple sites to your WordPress installation. It’s a feature that you can add to either your existing or newly-created WordPress site. To activate WordPress Multisite, you add a few lines of code to a couple of files in your WordPress installation. Then you create sites in your network. The existing site stays there, with its URL unchanged, while the new sites are added on top.
