How to administrate 350 domain names from ONE Admin Panel?

Hi, I'm looking for a way to administrate several Wordpress installations on different domain names within the same Wordpress panel, roll-out new websites to completely new domain names, to reduce costs, work smarter and be more efficient!

Today I am using too much time to manually login to each of the different websites updating and doing changes. It is also very expensive to buy 10 GB web hosting for every domain names when I really only need a maximum of 100 mb pr site.

Yesterday I purchased about 50 new domain names at Godaddy.com.
Is it possible to install each of the domain names in each own directory within the hosting account and do some technical adjustments in the control panel (if any) so that it will look like they are all located in their own isolated domain names for Google and other search engines?

Most of the sites will have the exact same wordpress theme, but with different content and will be branded separately. Will Wordpress Multisite be able to handle this? Any Web hosts that is offering this as a "one-click-operation"?

Anyone who might point me in the right direction?

Thanks for you time!

 

WPMU multi-site was rolled into the main WordPress in 3.0, that ability is there for you to use. See Create A Network in the WordPress Codex.

 

Hi Dodger, I simply can't figure out how to make my multisite host different top level domains. not subdomain.mydomain.com or mydomain.com/subfolder/ but domain1.com, domain2.com, domain3.net,domain4.tv and so on. Any idea on how to do this and if it is allowed on GoDaddy.com?

 

Domain masking? Not sure how it is properly done.

 

At GoDaddy. Go to your Domain Manager. Click on a domain to manage. On that screen you will have an option to edit Forwarding. In the pop-up screen, enter the Url of where you want to forward the domain AND choose the radio-button option for Forward with Masking.

i suggest to use multisite features of wordpress 3.0 + versions

instead of creating one network, please make a pair of 10,100,100 site networks

you can consult or hire developer to do that for you. or you can refer tutorials to achieve that if you are little bit knowledgeable with wordpress

thanks

 

yah use wpms and domain mapping ...

 

do you mind me asking why so many sites?

 

WP Multisite + Domain mapping plugin + many different IP address + MultiDB plugin

 

I concur with Dodger and recommend WP +3.0. As far as setting this up, I recommend you check Wordpress's Codex subsite. There is a lot of great information there! Hope this helps!

 

Thanks for helping me out guys, but I simply cannot find any solution where I can speed up the microsite/adsense content sites faster? Isn't there any more efficient way to do this part? I already have Wordpress Multisite (just bought installed it) and now I need to reduce the time it takes to setup a new domain on the multisite network with the templates, content and widgets with Adsense and Clickbank configured as default each time I roll out a new site. I am looking for a way to do this in less than 30 minutes pr domain from start till finish. Is there a magic trick available that might help me automate this a bit more?

I love WP Multisite, I just want a little bit more love before it is perfect
