Total newbie here.

I would appreciate any input on this.

Kinda trying to maximize my usage of one domain and hosting account... and a little confused.

I have hosting through hostmonter... which you can create unlimited database files. I'm using one domain name.

I want to create multiple self hosted wordpress blogs?

Do I have to get individual hosting for each blog??

For example, my domain name is website.com

I would create several database for each wordpress install.
I would point a unique domain name (eg: dogtrainingblog.com that points to website.com/blognumber1, website.com/blognumber2 etc)

Is there any advantages to using subfolder/database files under one host account as far as indexing, SEO, instead of it's own hosting account for each domain name?

What would be the best solution if I want to create multiple wordpress blogs?

I'm using wordpress mu with domain mapping for this situation.

Works like a charm

Hey Broco-

I'm not familiar with wordpress mu, is it as simple as the standard worpress?
I'll look up domain mapping... still all new to me... thanks for the input.
