Although I have decided that I will be buying my own domain and web hosting, it has to wait for a few days since I don’t have cash. However, since I was very excited, I scoured the wordpress documentation for anything that will let me install wordpress locally (in your own computer).

I found my answer at this page,

Multiple Wordpress Blogs Under One Wordpress Folder
By Allen Michael Gurrea

What is this?

This is a guide on how to have multiple wordpress blogs in just one wordpress folder.

Can I just upload another wordpress folder in my account and use that instead to make a new blog?

I thought about this and I can say that this is the super easiest way. However, it has some drawbacks.

1. Space - Every time you upload a new wordpress folder, you take up space. The default wordpress (without added themes and plug-ins) is about 4mb big and you have to multiply this to the number of blogs you want to have. For those who have no limits in their web-hosting, this should not be a problem but for those who only have 200mb for their hosting (ehem) it’s a problem.
2. Upgrade Hassles - Wordpress is still under development and new versions are released from time to time. Wordpress users needs to upgrade to the latest versions so that they can benefit from the new features and be more secure against exploits. If you only have one wordpress blog, upgrading is easy. But what if you have lots of wordpress blogs? You have to upgrade each of them and that will be a tedious task. It is something someone as lazy as me won’t bother to do.
3. Adding new themes and plug-ins - These are just for customizing your blog. Generally one them per blog is sufficient but the problem lies in the plug-ins. If you want to add new plug-ins to your blogs, you have to add them manually to each of them. Again, this is a tedious task that won’t be done by someone like me.

Why do you want to do this?

I wanted to do this because I plan to have several blogs for different topics. For example, you want to have a separate blog for your personal life, you dog’s life, your cat’s life and your cow’s life. There are many ways to do this but I wanted to look for the easiest and fastest way to have multiple blogs.
