he MultiSite system implemented by 4eck Media is brilliant for me. All our websites are in one central location in just one backend. Now it's easy for me and my colleagues to maintain the content. The maintenance costs have also been reduced for us as customers because only one system needs to be kept up to date instead of five. My recommendation!
Many companies face the same challenge: multiple websites, multiple domains, different content ... and it all has to be maintained, updated and operated securely. Every change, update and maintenance costs time and money. Especially when each website runs on its own system. The consequences are high effort, rising costs and often inconsistent content.
This is exactly where WordPress MultiSite comes into play. This solution allows you to run multiple websites in a single WordPress system. Instead of managing each domain separately, there is a central interface from which all sites are controlled. Here, for example, is a visualization of how we have connected five domains and five websites to a WordPress installation as a MultiSite system.
The advantages of the WordPress MultiSite system
The advantages for the customer and for us as the supporting agency are obvious.
- Central administration: updates, plugins and themes only need to be maintained once.
- Consistent content: Content or structures can be easily aligned on all websites.
- One system only needs to be maintained instead of many systems. Less maintenance means lower costs.
- Each website can still have its own design, content and domain. The particular advantage of this is that design differences are also possible, as in the following image of the MultiSite system for tourism websites from K&K.
Practical examples from us: Real customer projects
We at 4eck Media have already implemented several MultiSite projects and experienced the benefits in practice.
- ElbMed Prignitz: A MultiSite system for five different domains. All content maintained centrally, but tailored to the respective target group. Further websites from the portfolio will be added to the system in the coming year.
- K&K Ferienimmobilien: Five tourism sites in one MultiSite system. Each site highlights a specific destination, but is managed via a common backend.
- Dr. Felix Handy: Two websites in one system - one for the dental practice and one specialized for oral surgery and dental implants. Both sites are individually designed, but technically run in a single system. See the following image:
These examples show: MultiSite is not only exciting for corporations or big brands, but also for medium-sized businesses, tourism companies or doctors who want to present several specializations. We are currently working on two further customers who are having a WordPress MultiSite system developed by us. One is an elite boarding school here in the region, which also runs a sister school in southern Germany ... we are just a few weeks away from going live - a blog post will follow. On the other hand, we are developing a multi-site solution with five websites for a local tax and business consultancy. And for our valued existing client K&K Ferienimmobilien, we will soon be connecting the sixth destination to the existing WordPress MultiSite system.
