Multisite: different domains & different hosts

    Hi everyone, I’m pretty new to wordpress so I apologize if this is super elementary.

    I currently have a personal wordpress site of my own that I am building. A family member also wants me to build and maintain theirs.

    We use two different hosting companies. Is it possible for me to use multisite to manage both domains even though they are on separate hosts?

    They currently have wordpress installed with their hosts. If this would work, I’m assuming I would just delete that install and hook it to my multisite?

    I just want to set it up correctly now so that I’m not constantly logging into their site as well as my own.

    Thanks!

  • Hi there,

    By definition, two installations of WordPress on different hosts can’t be managed via multisite. However, there are tools you can use to manage multiple WordPress installations from one place. The ones that come to mind immediately are MainWP, ManageWP and InfiniteWP. I can’t recommend one in particular; you’ll have to compare the costs and features to see which if any works for you.
