How to Host Multiple Websites

On WebJi® shared hosting, Webji Scale is the plan for several websites: it allows unlimited domains and email for ₹699 a month, ₹6,588 a year or ₹16,164 for three years, before 18% GST. Webji Launch and Webji Turbo each host one website.

All plans share one pool of resources across the sites on the account, so a busy shop and three quiet brochure sites will compete for the same CPU. The final amount is confirmed at checkout; email support@webji.services with the number of sites and whether any are stores if you want a recommendation first.

WordPress Multisite fits a network of similar sites that one team manages, such as franchise branches or regional editions, because plugins, themes and updates are shared from one install. It is a poor fit for unrelated client sites.

• Choose it when: one team updates everything, the sites share a design family, and nobody outside needs separate hosting access.
• Avoid it when: sites need different plugins, a client may leave with their site, or one site is a heavy store.
• Remember: one vulnerable plugin, or one database problem, affects every site in the network.

Multisite is enabled by adding define( 'WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true ); to wp-config.php and then following Tools → Network Setup. Moving a single site out of a network later takes more work than moving a standalone install.

On a VPS, the web server routes each domain to its own folder through a virtual host (Apache) or server block (Nginx) that matches the requested hostname. You add one configuration file per site.

# Nginx: /etc/nginx/sites-available/secondsite.in
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name secondsite.in www.secondsite.in;
    root /var/www/secondsite.in/public;
    index index.php index.html;
}
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/secondsite.in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
sudo nginx -t && sudo systemctl reload nginx

# Apache: /etc/apache2/sites-available/secondsite.in.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName secondsite.in
    ServerAlias www.secondsite.in
    DocumentRoot /var/www/secondsite.in/public
</VirtualHost>
sudo a2ensite secondsite.in.conf
sudo apache2ctl configtest && sudo systemctl reload apache2

Add HTTPS per site with Certbot afterwards. A VPS gives isolation you configure yourself, from ₹499 a month before GST on WebJi® VPS hosting; you also take on patching and security. The reverse-proxy pattern for mixed stacks is in Nginx as a reverse proxy for Apache.
